Kitchen-y shopping on the Hill?

So I know this totally pegs me with respect to that poll from a few months ago, but is there a good place for kitchen stuff up here?

In particular, I've got this coffee pot that I just love, and which I might like to give to others as a gift:
my coffee pot
They're available on backorder from Vita (thanks for the links to local online shopping, J!), but are they the only supplier? And what if I need a spare gasket?
Or a silicone basting brush???

I know there are places downtown, but anyone know of a place up here?

coffee pot
Looks like Starbucks has your coffee pot online so perhaps they have it in their store, too - Dama Stovetop Espresso Maker.

PS: Have you looked at the home section at the Broadway QFC (corporate but on the hill) to see their selection of kitchen stuff)?

Looks like my Bialetti Moka Express
I got mine (and the replacement gaskets) down at the Sur La Table in Pike Place Market. I'd love to know of a place that carries them up on the hill too!

I always forget about Starbucks
Which is kind of unfair, since they're local-ish and all . . . I'll check and report back.

Actually, it was my failed trip to the Broadway Market QFC that inspired the post. Their kitchen selection is pretty good (or amazing, really, for a grocery store), but not quite what I want. (Not quite yuppie enough? That may, alas, be it.)
Sur La Table: now that's a kitchen store! It's definitely my fall-back if the Hill doesn't work out.

I love mine!
And get replacement gaskets and filters downtown at Caffe D'Arte.

I love mine too!
I got what appears to be the same model as a Christmas gift last year, and I love it. I get my replacement gaskets at City Kitchens downtown on 4th Ave.

Oh, City Kitchens, that's a good idea! Caffé D'arte too: both are local, right? Not Capitol Hill, but local is good. Thanks for the tips.

Glad to hear there are other fans of stove-top espresso around!

Also at Peet's
I've seen those at Peet's on Denny Way and Broadway.

Online and elsewhere
You can order these pots (and their kin) and spare parts online direct from Bialetti, though S&H is a bitch: http://www.bialetti.it/uk/ecommerce/scheda.asp?id_cat=24

I got mine from Bed Bath & Beyond.
