Thanks to open plan kitchens and smaller space living, formal dining rooms seem more like a dream then a reality in many of today's homes. Because of this, kitchen design often incorporates stylish eat-in kitchens and we anticipate we'll be seeing more kitchens designed around this feature. Whether your eat-in kitchen is nothing more than a nook or a space large enough to host dinner for 10, a variety of options can make this feature possible for just about every space.No island? No problem. In these eat-in kitchens a dining room table does double duty as prep and eating space.
