Located at such sophisicated area, it is almost predictable that the brands featured in the exhibition will include big brands like FENDI and more. Suitable for home owners or hoteliers, this exhibition is set to impress your creativeness and eye for design with designer furnitures, accessories and everything you need in a household or a hotel. As a food and wine magazine, it is of course our main interest to look at the kitchenwares available. Cristel and Magimix were two brands that caught our candid eye for creativity and ease of use. Brought in by comme 1 chef, these two brands from France will make their way to Singapore very soon. What can we look forward to in these brands then? For Cristel, what attracts us most is the ease of use for all kitchen users where the rubber handles are interchangeable, designed to fit any of their pots and pans, easily removed and easily attached. That way, space saving is the first advantage on the list and what's better, is that you can easily place a number of pots to cook at the same time and remove with a clip of the handle. It is made of the best material and one of the first brands to do a test drive on any kind of stoves, including induction stoves when it first came out. It has a beautiful finish and is the product to have in your kitchen to impress guests. Visit

Moving on to magimix, what was placed on demonstration was their blender that serves all function, from blending, to whisking, to juicing. The product offers you vacuums of different sizes based on your requirements or capacity needed, and different blades for different purposes, like slicing thinly or just normal slices with the choice of 2mm or 4mm. If you are into baking, then this machine will serve you well with the option of whisking your egg or baking mixtures. It is simple to use with the press of either "auto" or "pulse". Auto is meant for easy automatic use where you can stop the machine by pressing "stop". Pulse will allow you to have a short blend for perhaps slicing of salmon. The auto is highly recommended for normal use where the machine offers optimum precision and using the engine that functions with conformity and unanimity where speed is constant despite the capacity, like how a lift works at the same speed regardless of the amount of people it ferries. The smaller version of the blender will definitely attract home cooks where a variety of colours are made available. Visit
