Outdoor kitchen plans: an exquisite dining experience

It is commonly believed that not   only the food but also the surroundings matter.Nothing beats the pleasure of   dining outside in a pleasant weather amidst the greenery, beside a pool,   under the twinkling stars or simple sunny morning. If you are planning to   remodel your backyard or simply wondering where to place the huge grill you   just bought, an outdoor kitchen plans could be just the right thing for   you.

Strategy to design outdoor   kitchen

You can start by building a   patio (deck) of bricks or wood to a create platform for your kitchen in the   backyard. Location of the kitchen is very important. There should be a flow   of space from your main living area to the outdoor kitchen and commuting to   the outdoor kitchen should be hassle free. If the patio is close to the pool   some space should be provided for commuting to and from the pool.

A separate entrance to the   house would be preferred. The outdoor kitchen should be close to main indoor   kitchen, preferably separated by a patio door. The kitchen can host a raised   wooden platform with wooden cabinets, a grill and a sink. The platform can be   used as the preparation area, whereas the cabinets can be used to keep the   cutlery meant for the purpose of outdoor dining. And if you believe that a   dinner is not complete without a glass of fine wine, adding a mini bar to   your outdoor kitchen plan would be a great idea.
