I set up as more casual style. Guests sometimes prefer more casual style. It is very important for me to make them feel very comfortable and cozy at my kitchen. It is also important for me to see their faces to see how much they are enjoying my cooking and our wine! So I set up at our kitchen counter and I can see them, I can serve them whatever they might need, and I can be a part of the conversation while I am cooking! My preparation for cooking is always completed 90% before our guests show up. I like my kitchen very organized without any mess. I usually do the last part of cooking which makes it warm ( heating), crispy (frying),and beautiful (topping) in the front of my guests:)
