@Tiamat_the_Red, of course everyone's needs are different, but if it were me, I would want a 10" skillet rather than an 8" and I wouldn't want a non-stick one. For eggs, etc. I would get one of the non-stick T-Fal's he also recommends that are inexpensive and can be easily replaced when they wear out.

I don't agree with his comment about purchasing sets of cookware. They are rarely a good idea. You usually get pots you won't use or ones that are inferior (like an aluminum dutch oven, rather than an enameled cast iron one).

The Le Creuset ones are nice, but I dislike the excessive branding. I don't want a visible brand name stamped on my dinnerware. Do These Float Your Boat? Stylish Gravy Boats | Apartment Therapy The Kitchn |

I have a couple of teacups from Muji that come with a built-in stainer and lid. Everything is made of ceramic. It's nice, although the strainer has large holes, so a few tea leaves always come through. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | SnapTea Infuser: Another Way To Brew Loose-Leaf Tea |

I agree with the opoponax. The dutch oven is far more handy. If you find you want to make large quantities of stock you can always get a cheap-o stockpot later. You can't really burn stock, so you don't need pricey enamel of cast iron. Instead, you can just go to your local restaurant supply store and pick up at 10-12 quart stock pot for $20 - $30.

Definitely prefer the semi-circle, or at least a corner where the stools can be placed at an angle to one another. Otherwise, if you have more than two people at the counter, it's hard to interact. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | Look! A Semi-Circular Kitchen Island |
