| - I promise to rate Good Egg higher if I ever purchase something here.
As it stands, Good Egg is an excellent place to kill a few minutes while waiting for your table at the local tacqueria, empanada joint or jamaican Patty shack .
Small in size, but huge in cuteness, Good Egg is mostly staffed by hipsters who don't mind if you browse. They're slow to approach, but ready with informed answers to your questions.
Fun stuff to buy includes walls of cookbooks, a smattering of Le Creuset enamelware, and an edited selection of Wusthof knives.
Foodie gimmickry abounds. It's a great place to buy your favourite culinary gearhead a stocking (or sausage) stuffer, complete with a smug sense of ironic detachment. Prices seem just north of steep, though, and true funksters will probably prefer the much larger, more indie Blue Banana across the street.
I'm still heading there next time I visit Kensington Market, though.
