Wanderlust = restaurant supply shopping

I just got back from Fox Restaurant Equipment and Supply in Sarasota.

It's the kind of store I like to go to every once in a while — if not for a specific item, then just for the browsing possibilities. It's like a whole other world. I've been there at least a half a dozen times, and I'm still smitten.


I needed to replace a salt shaker that has the black or white flip lid for keeping moisture out. I can't seem to find them anywhere anymore. But Fox has them!


Although Fox caters to the professional kitchen, there's plenty for the home cook.



You can also pick up plates, cups, bowls and the like in large quantities or by the piece. And if you're looking for a specialty tool for your kitchen, Fox undoubtedly has it or will gladly order it.



Poking around in the back room, you never know what you're going to find . It reminds me of a giant garage sale. I didn't take a photo of it, but it's worth the trip to visit. Steel shelving holds mass quantities of everything from used dishes, utensils and silverware to ovens, bar stools and glassware.

The store is open to the public and there's no fee to join. Just go in and shop away.

I just love this place!
