These kitchens have a sink, refrigerator/freezer, stove and microwave. Basic small appliances, serving utensils and cookware are stocked in the cupboards and drawers. There are also dishes, drinking glasses, silverware, etc. for the number of people that kitchen/meeting area is designed to hold. If you are a cook used to certain knives, appliances, etc., it may be a good idea to bring those items from home as our kitchens are stocked with very basic items.
