THE GALLEY also known as the Corridor is
the second simplest kitchen layout available and like the One Wall, is often
used when space is limited. It consists
of two parallel work spaces – with a counter and sink on one side and the
appliances on the other – with an aisle
running between them (or some similar arrangement).
This layout is named after the style of kitchens found aboard ships, trains and
aircrafts.
In this layout counter space is very
limited and you can usually have only one cook in the kitchen at a time. On
another note, strange but true, although I have seen a host of One Wall designs
in Trinidad – the Galley is not as popular, even in smaller spaces. Most
builders simply opt for the One Wall. Maybe because as Trini we do not encourage
a FLOW of traffic through our kitchens – we get in and we get out. Do any of
you have galley kitchens? Please feel to send me your pics!
