A viable alternative to laminate - IMO - is tile. There are several

Without getting into the good idea/bad idea question, I
am curious what you'd recommend as a substrate to put

Anything but cement board is a waste of time, but do use a good quality

I'd not use tile on a counter, but I I did, it would be epoxy grout.
I've heard there are not urethane grouts too.
