If you love gourmet cooking, consider adding an island with a soapstone and butcher block combo countertop to your kitchen. The soapstone's non-porous surface is ideal for rolling out dough and working with pastry, while the butcher block provides a convenient area for cutting and chopping. This combination is perfect for avid bakers and chefs who enjoy spending time in the kitchen. Install a pot rack above the island to keep your cookware easily accessible.
