Sur la Table in the Cherry Creek mall is one of the nicest cooking stores I've been in. They carry a large inventory of all of the top brands of cookware, knives, bakeware, gadgets, cookbooks and gourmet ingredients. I went in looking for a gift for my mom, who is a very experienced chef, and I found exactly what I wanted. The prices seem to be right in line with other stores of this type; on par with or perhaps a little lower than William Sonoma. The staff at Sur la Table were very knowledgable, friendly and helpful and the store has a pleasant airy atmosphere.
Also, they are offering a free knife sharpening promotion during the month of April. See the details here:

It is definitely a fun place for anyone who loves cooking and food.
