15 - Aid in the kitchen

Here is something I own, but never have used. I bought this in my favourite kitchen shop in Beaune (France).
Probably fell for the colours. And my husband and I both thought it could be handy. Perhaps I prefer knives?

A kitchen is like a wheel
The smoother it runs
The better the eye appeal

No last minute chores
No sauce stains on the floor
You can see quality from the door

The fewer the Guests
The better the jests
Of the chef-patrons best

When a kitchen runs like a wheel

(Cuisinier Darin K. Heltemes)

At least it's a colorful addition to your kitchen :)

I love the colours! Works so well against the dark background.

may it is the clean up after the use hinders you in using it

Colors YES. I like the poem too :-)

Yeah, these never work well anyway. I like to see what I'm chopping and grating. :) Like it though, very modern.

I too vote for knives! Beautiful colors though. Well done. V

Terrific colourful shot! This is not something I own, but doubt I'd use it if I did, though the colours would make me keep it! V

Very colorful! I agree with Janice. Kitchen gadgets are fun to use, but the set-up and clean-up are often more time consuming than a simple knife and cutting board.

Great photo... Actually I was looking at things like this in a shop just the other day, and thought... Ive not got anything like this... but I dont need it.... I just use a Knife !!! LOL much quicker and easier to wash!!

It must be useful, I totally agree with Boris!!! Great composition and photo Maaike! V

Looks like a great grater! I'd use it! :)

Moulinex is a good company and there´s some use for it, because to make julienne with your knife is quite dangerous for your nails! :)

Sometimes I think that these items take more time cleaning them after use - and knives are often quicker and they certainly clean quicker!!!

I have had a Mouli cheese grater for years, but it's style is very simple compared to this one
