00:00This is my kitchen. I want to show you around.
00:08We had this pantry built. I really wanted a coffee drawer. I have electricity built in the back.
00:14Nobody wants to talk to me in the morning before I've had coffee. Just a quick espresso system.
00:18Three a day. Okay, let's talk about knives. Super simple, basic Ikea knife magnets. Favorite,
00:25favorite rider down knife. This creature from New West Knife Works. My second favorite knife is from
00:30Nacional Blade Works in the Philippines. The handle is made out of recycled skateboards. This is the
00:36command station. This is where I'm cooking all the time. I'm within one or two steps of my heat source
00:41with the stove, refrigeration, and water in the sink. So we've got this microwave drawer. Great storage
00:48solution. Is it safe space? All my crucial tools. Side towels. Great feature. Garbage right here.
00:56And then a drawer with all the important mixing bowls. Deli containers for storage. I think everybody
01:01needs a hot sauce door. Valentina. Of course, chili garlic sauce. Wang sauce. Definitely Cholula.
01:09Chili bean sauce. And of course, sriracha. These are books that are very, very important to us.
01:16You need to have Go Books by Edna Lewis. She's an American legend. Secret storage compartment. Ugly appliances
01:22that we use every now and then. Slow cooker, juicer, waffle maker. Not everyday stuff, but great storage.
01:29Thanks for coming.
