Dear Eater SF,

I desperately need to organize my dishes in my small apartment kitchen. I’m looking for a metro rack in a very specific size. Which kitchen store can I go to without being “industry”?

Thanks,
Kitchen Chaos Manager

Hey KCM,

Thanks for the timely question! As someone who spent the winter holiday gutting the pantry, I feel the desperation. It’s always satisfying to do some clearing out in the new year. Especially right now, with everyone still locked down at home, it’s an ideal moment to dig into an organization project, and pretend you have even an ounce of control over the world. Or at least the baking cupboard.

To best answer your question, I reached out to Gil Payumo from Senor Sisig, to see if he had any recommendations. According to the chef and Bay Area native, here’s where to find affordable storage solutions for your home kitchen pantry.

Chefs’ Toys

The other option is Chefs’ Toys, formerly known as Economy Restaurant Fixtures, which is a national chain with a location in the Design District. They do have a shoppable website, with free shipping on most orders, and a quick search shows a few different sizes of metro racks, as well as storage containers.
