Benefits of Choosing a Wedding Venue with an Open Kitchen: Enjoy Watching the Chefs at Work!

What is an Open Kitchen?

The term "open kitchen" is something you occasionally hear while looking at various wedding venues.

An open kitchen is not a completely separate room with a chef located in a walled-off cooking area, but rather a glass-enclosed, open kitchen that is integrated with the banquet hall, allowing visibility from both sides.

Many venues advertise themselves saying, "This venue has an open kitchen!" as it becomes one of the points to consider when choosing a location.

But what advantages does having an open kitchen offer when hosting a wedding?

Let's introduce its魅力 (charm).

Charm of an Open Kitchen ① You can enjoy fresh, hot dishes

The charm of an open kitchen is, above all, this!

The chef's job is to prepare dishes by timing them perfectly with the speed at which guests are eating.

Therefore, the chef can see the guests and adjust, completing the plating just before serving the next dish, which is a delightful point.

Guests can enjoy fresh, warm, and delicious dishes almost immediately!

Charm of an Open Kitchen ② Seeing the cooking process is refreshing

For guests, it's also appealing to see the chef cooking right there!

Especially for an open kitchen, initially, it may be hidden behind curtains or blinds.

When the reception begins, and on cue from the bride and groom, the guests are amazed and surprised to see the open kitchen!

During the socializing time, being able to watch the actual cooking process through the glass window is a refreshing delight.

Charm of an Open Kitchen ③ It can be utilized for performance

The final charm is that the open kitchen can be utilized for performances.

For example, the bride and groom could appear from the open kitchen to serve a dessert buffet...

The groom in a chef's outfit could collaborate with the chef for a flambé performance!

Depending on the ideas, it can be used for various surprise performances.
