The recent quasi-lockdown has made experimental chefs out of us having a go at homemade recipes and the like. But it has also exposed our under-equipped kitchens – the last thing you want is not being able to whip up a storm because you’re missing a piece of kitchenware. Here’s our handy guide to where you can get everything from pots and pans, to smart appliances like sous vide machines.
Lau Choy Seng
With over 20,000 products from more than 35 brands, in addition to their own house brand kitchenware, Lau Choy Seng really has it all. Supplying big names like Marina Bay Sands and Resorts World Sentosa, their categories of items range from pastry equipment and prata pans, to crepe makers and even bar utensils for home mixologists. For those looking to whip up more of a tsunami than a storm, their Japanese Kitchen category boasts niche cookware like donburi pans, aluminium nabe bowls, and oyster openers.

Ikea
Ikea is the beginner’s best friend when it comes to kitchenware, but also an affordable one-stop option for all. Pots start at a low price of S$9.90, including sleek wooden chopping boards at the same price. With an extensive selection of both kitchenware and tableware – from small deets like napkin holders to the mainstay plates and bowls – it’s a great starting place to fill in the gaps of your kitchen. Don’t mistake the low prices for low quality, though. Ikea is about as reliable as it gets.
