I just noticed I forgot the link of where I bought the pan
http://www.woll-cookware.ca/products.htm


I used it for bacon and eggs this morning. While not a complex meal, having
a pan that cooks evenly does help for even this simple dish. With my cast
iron, the bacon would often be cooked in the center, but the ends a bit
underdone. This was very even right across. I was able to cook on a
little lower heat too. After the bacon, I left the burner on while doing
another chore before I put the eggs in the pan and it did not overheat and
the eggs cooked well also.


With this, I'm pretty well set for life too. Good cookware does not make
you a better cook, but it does help provide a better result with even
heating and ease of use and will last for decades, many decades. As for the
non-stick coating, I won't know for about 5 years if it is more durable than
my old pans because I could easily get 3 to 5 years from a modest priced
Teflon coated pan. They are just getting harder to find with a thick
bottom. Most are far too thin but the Woll is 10 mm. Most of the stuff in
chain stores is about 4 mm.
