It's a Wrap!

The holidays are here! It is hard to believe we are wrapping up another year. We are so looking forward to 2012 as we expand our showroom.  More kitchen vignettes for you to see as well as appliances for every budget.  
 

We hope that as you prepare your holiday dinners, you will think about using the convection mode on your ovens or ranges to speed up the cooking process. Use your warming drawers to keep your meals warm and of course those dishwashers will be loaded and unloaded many times.

Not only am I wrapping all my gifts, I am also wrapping up another successful year of events. We hosted many charity functions and I look forward to working with the organizations who will be hosting their events with us. We are employing more chefs for variety as we continue to expand our cooking class schedule.

All of us wish all of you the happiest of holidays and we wish you all good things for 2012. Follow us on facebook to see our progress.  

See you in the New Year!

Until then – Happy Cooking!

Our new Gaggenau "Live" kitchen all decked out for the NARI holiday party!

The Transformation

It has been so crazy around our showroom; however we have two new “live” kitchens.

Our Wolf/Subzero kitchen has been renovated and is absolutely gorgeous. Wait until you see our new Gaggenau design center. Totally contemporary! We definitely are a work in progress as we continue to expand. What exciting times for Appliance World!

We hosted NARI’s holiday party here and everyone was in awe at how beautiful our showroom is. We entertained 165 guests complete with entertainment. Tommy Sullivan was rocking the house. Our corporate chefs from Wolf/Subzero, Dacor, Electrolux and Thermador were here doing what they do best - preparing their culinary delights for all to enjoy. Check us out on our facebook page or our website applianceworldny.com.

Until next time – Happy Cooking!

The Bustle of the Holidays are Upon Us

I went to get my haircut this morning and the discussion was all about the upcoming holiday season. We talked about who was going where and who was cooking what. It led me into a discussion about how the preparation can be a bit simplified by the process of convection.

Some people were amazed at how you can cook many of your side dishes and desserts all at the same time. You can even cook some of your sides along with your turkey if there is enough room. It seems that many people purchase ovens with great features such as convection and don’t ever use them. Convection is the way to go. It is nothing more than circulating hot air by a fan system which results in no flavor transfer. This way of cooking enables you to do multi-level cooking.

If you are in the market for a new oven, make sure you ask about convection. Almost all the brands offer that feature on their ovens or ranges. Some popular brands are Electrolux, Thermador, Wolf, Dacor, GE, Bosch, and Frigidaire. If you purchase an oven or range from us, we will give you a complimentary convection cooking class with a professional chef. That is always informational and a delightful dinner treat.

Until next time – Happy Cooking!

The Beauty of Natural Stone

Along with the kitchen renovations at Appliance World, comes the selection of counter tops.

As I was browsing in the stone yards looking to select granite for counter tops to match cabinetry and incorporate our stainless steel Wolf / Subzero and Electrolux appliances, I marveled at the beauty of these natural stones. When I studied the slabs carefully, it amazed me as I looked at the different variations in the stone. I stood there wondering what took place in our earth’s crust to create the different patterns.

The selections were beautiful and vast from all over the world. I looked at slabs from Brazil, India, Australia and Africa to name a few places. As beautiful as a new kitchen can be, the counter top is truly the crowning glory. We are looking to create a WOW factor when you come to see our new kitchens. It is fun being part of the selection process for our new displays. We will keep you updated and give you sneak previews as we move forward with our renovations.

Until next time – Happy Cooking!
