Kitchenware is probably the easiest thing to depict as an icon although we need to be careful that it's not too similar to amenity=restaurant (spoon and fork), amenity=cafe (teacup and saucer), amenity=bar (wineglass), amenity=pub (pintglass), shop=tea (teapot) or shop=butcher (meat cleaver).
A sideview of a bowl on top of a plate might work, or a whisk/spoon/spatula with a bowl or pan.
Icon proposals:
(spoon + pot)
(spoon + spatula + pan)I've tried many things, but they are still not good recognizable for me, I'm ready to tune them up due to your suggestions.
I like 1., but maybe the pot would be enough. I was also thinking about simple kettle - it has easy recognizable shape and does not even hint about eating place.
I also like 1. Maybe the spoon could be made slightly thicker, if space allows. Is the pot lid at 50% opacity or is it just a bit blurry?
shop=houseware v2:

Doesn't it reminds some kind of little cake? If you are satisfied with this shpe, I'll upload it to Gist.
A cake with handles?
I still quite like the idea of 1, maybe replace the pot with a simple bowl shape. (Although I haven't been able to design anything that's better)
You can upload it, maybe I will try to tinker with it a bit. It reminds me rather Osmic version of ferry terminal, but the context and lack of waves will make it not important.
Simple kettle icon examples:

I think kettle is too much connected to the tea, a pot is more universal.

the pot is fine, but the additional spoon was useful too.
1 is good

I think it needs the spoon for sure. Here's my stab at it.

Maybe change the spoon for a fork so it does not look like a store that sells soup?
That's an idea. The only problem is that with limited pixels, the fork gets very wide and starts looking like Neptune's trident. :)

I think I prefer the spoon.
How about we add a knife?

Can you upload it as a gist so that it's ready for a coder to do test rendering?
I like this design - it's easy to recognize "kitchen bits and pieces" instead of cooking place for example. I would only add a space between pot and a lid.
Here it is with a subtle lid:
