tHe sociAl KitcHen
The kitchen is the humble engine room in which we choose to
live — where we create, socialise and enjoy the best that life has
to offer. Cooking is a social activity. We generally place the key
appliances in what we consider to be logical places: the work
triangle of cooktop, sink and fridge. But we no longer cook in
straight lines. We don’t cook on conveyor belts. Sometimes
we assemble, sometimes we bake, sometimes we stir-fry and
sometimes we boil. We don’t cook the same way every day:
we can be a weekday cook and a weekend gourmet. The work
triangle limits our creativity. It’s not just about efficiency;
sometimes it’s about fun. Too many cooks may spoil the
broth or they may create a wonderful, social and enjoyable
meal. Let’s reclaim the kitchen. Let’s live outside the triangle.
