kitchen
JGL- This is pretty relevant in terms of layout- ceiling design, placement of dining table, etc. I probably want seating at our bar, but I like the look of this kitchen. This outer bar has a wine chiller- perhaps something to consider with more storage in the back kitchen. We could also put the ice machine in the outer island and actually set our bar/alcohol storage there, given we are not planning for a separate bar area.
JGL- I like the butcher block on the inner island, but it's probably impractical to cover that large an area with it. I would like to have some butcher block at ideal working height on the inner island, or possibly a cutout to drop a Boos block into. I also think there may be an induction module hiding in the inner island, just across from the prep sink.
