My sister and I are not so subtle, <a href="http://www.usanetwork.com/series/whitecollar/">White Collar</a> fans. The show runs on the USA network and features a rather handsome art thief protagonist, Neil Caffrey, whose been assigned to help the FBI's White Collar division solve and thwart many a art heist and counterfeiting crime. 

The premise sounds simple enough, but being shot entirely on the real streets of NYC with characters sporting a wonderfully streamlined, clean cut wardrobe not to mention snappy banter between the protagonist and his geekily handsome bespectacled con man friend Mozzie, it's a show more than worth watching on a weekly basis. 

But that's not all. 

Neil's apartment is located in a mansion on the upper east side and as you may imagine it is a space to die-for. 

I love, LOVE his kitchen. Let me count the ways:

Vintage stove - CHECK
Glass front cabinetry - CHECK
Open shevling - CHECK
Antique knick knacks - CHECK
Subway tile - CHECK
Proximity to dining space and fireplace - CH-CH-CHECK!

A space needn't be huge to be fabulous and this is a classic example. The kitchen is seamless with the rest of the space. Nevermind that you can see the bed from the stove or the front door from the kitchen sink. The colours are warm, the antiquities in line with the rest of the studio space and the dining space the centre of attention { so it's clear just what is important! }. I couldn't choose a more ideal space to live in myself. Not an episode goes by where I don't drool over this kitchen.
