I'd guess that either your main valve needs replacing or water is taking it's time draining from any pipes above the kitchen. Did you open upstairs faucets if any?

There should be three ways to shut the cold water off.
1) The angle stop in the cabinet.
2) The house shut off. **OR**
3} The meter or pump shut off.
Are they all bad? Let me know, Tomn

Is this a house ? How many stories ?
Is this a condo ? What floor are you at ?
