or a wedding; set it up with a bouncy house for a children's birthday. e large kitchen, which
corrals both a breakfast nook and a casual seating area, puts a chef and team within earshot
of both indoor and outdoor guests, while its large windows offer discrete vantage points from
which to monitor the backyard's activities while a door here enables direct access.
