kitchen
Where meals happen
A kitchen is a room equipped for preparing and cooking food.
Most homes have one; restaurants have commercial kitchens with industrial equipment.
The word extends to the staff who work there: The kitchen is backed up tonight.
A kitchen sink drama depicts gritty domestic realism.
If something includes everything but the kitchen sink, it's excessively comprehensive.
