spend on a kichen job. I really can't.


I have been in so many kitchens, I have lost count. As a result, I
have seen both ends of the scale.
I have seen stellar executions for under $10K and complete rubbish for
$80K.
One kitchen cost the guy $220.000 and I actually thought it was
brilliant. He spent a lot of money on restaurant grade equipment and
the finest of all granites and lots of it. It turned out beautiful, in
a Bentley sort of way. It was also very big, I'm guessing 30 x 40 ft.
Then, a few months ago, I was in a kitchen where the people spent $40K
on cabinets and it was absolutely disgusting. They could not have
squeezed more 'ornate bull**** flourishes' in, if they tried.
Mouldings on top of mouldings and all sprayed with that coloured
lacquer crap. Awful.
Tasty doesn't need to cost a lot, if the money is spent wisely.
