Accolades for the American Masala Collection

From Jennifer Baron, owner of A Cook’s Companion in Brooklyn, NY:

I wanted to tell you how wonderfully Suvir's mortar and pestle sold. We'll be placing our third order soon! It is such a show piece in our display, customers can't help 'ogling' it.

Suvir's American Masala mortar and pestle is a piece of functioning art. Customers are drawn to its beauty and when they pick up the wide based pestle they realize its utility. All cooks appreciate a clever, functional and efficient implement. To add color, design and beauty sends them over the top. I've had several customers come in to buy one as a special gift for a foodie friend and wind up leaving with two. It's hard to deny oneself such a unique culinary tool.
