In our recent post Kitchen: Rolling Carts, we featured a roundup of rolling carts for extra kitchen storage. Here's another variation on the theme: the rolling kitchen island with a butcher-block or stainless-steel top, which functions as extra work space and as a serving table; perfect for the space-challenged chef. Here are a few options for a mobile kitchen island.
