We have the original, hard anodized uncoated Caphalon pans. They're over twenty years old now and are just superb.

It must be good then

If he spent a couple of grand on pots and pans, he could take over someone's job as a world-class chef.


Ya know... I heard this joke years ago and thought how appropriate. However, after moving into a house with a gas cooktop my opinion has changed. In our old house with the electric stove our pots and pans were adequate and we had many fine gourmet meals cooked by myself and my lovely bride.

When we moved here six months ago things changed. We couldn't get used to the gas stove and I just simply blamed my skills and incompetence. Well, one of our fry-pans started to lose its non- stick coating and the wife decided to buy some new pans. We got a big 12 inch skillet with lid and a set of 10" and 12" omelet pans all made by Calphalon and costing a total of US$110 (to me a LOT of money for pots and pans).

All of a sudden we are able to cook again! We can control the heat better and everything is coming out soooo much better.

So, as with photography, the skills of the chef/photographer matter a lot, but the tools make a huge difference too.

Back to your normal programming...

My first set of new pots/pans was Caphalon. The original type - anodized, no coating. I don't think you can get these anymore. Anyhow, I have been spoiled - I have added three to the original set. I don't cook much anymore though.

Quality in tools can translate to quality in photographs when one of the tools is the photographer's eye,
