Take a gander at our list of favorite new culinary destinations and there you’ll see listed Savour, a twee Market Street stocker of gourmet foodstuffs. A few storefronts down from Savour is Kitchen N Things. A stone’s throw away find Cookies.

The list goes on, but the point is that when Dish It Up! scouted its second location, it seems natural the cooking school and kitchen store would choose culinary hub Ballard. Dish It Up! announced Thursday it is taking over 5320 Ballard Avenue, which is across the street from Bastille.

Owners Andrea and Dave Reith expect the space—outfitted with a 32-foot-wide demo kitchen and more room for classes than the current location in Magnolia —will open in September or October.

There are whispers that the beefed-up kitchen will host cooking competitions between local chefs. Awesome.
