We are looking at remodeling the kitchen, we are still in the layout mode. The original kitchen had a few pinch points and bad work flow, we are trying to remedy those. I tend to like to cook and entertain and most gatherings end in my kitchen. So I want to have a space that works well. The kitchen has upper cabinets as well that I didn't draw. The tall cabinet to the left of the garage door is a microwave and oven tall boy. The dishwasher is to the right of the sink.

That is the original kitchen.

Here is our proposed layout

We are considering removing the small wall next to the Bar sink (lower right hand side) but that is the only ceiling joist that ends on that wall and there are pipes from the upstairs bathroom that run through that wall.
