For Chefs Short on Space

For Chefs Short on Space

Even the most well designed kitchen can get a little cluttered – whether it feeds a family or a whole hotel’s worth of people like the one at the Mandarin Oriental run by Executive Chef Rachel Klein. Responsible for the menus at M Bar and Asana as well as room service and events, Klein knows all too well how quickly kitchen space can disappear. That’s why she’s asking for a Boskke Sky Ceramic Planter this holiday season.

The innovative, gravity-defying design of these stylish little hanging planters takes advantage of the oft-underutilized ceiling allowing for indoor gardening without sacrificing floor or counter space. Not only does this keep kitchen clutter to a minimum but, as Klein points out, also keeps plants up and out of reach from little hands and keeps herbs handy for snipping while cooking. If you’re shopping for a chefly type whose space is a little cramped, consider placing an order through the Boskke website.
