Sur La Table Opens on King Street

Full slate of cooking classes begins next week at Old Town Alexandria store.

Seattle-based Sur La Table opened its new King Street location near City Hall on Thursday and handed out free coffee to visitors.

The space formerly housed a CVS, which moved up the street to a larger space at 503 King St. in 2012. That spot was vacated by Books-a-Million.

Along with selling kitchenware and cookware accessories, Sur La Table will offer a culinary program at the King Street location in an impressive demo kitchen.
