Camping Kitchens come in all shapes & sizes. Portable, bolted inside campervans or designed to pullout the back. At the very start of or camping adventures, we bought a kitchen bag from Outwell in the photo, similar to this one It’s still used on our trips.
There’s 4 pockets along the front & 2 at each side, & 3 large compartments inside with a zip closed top. Like Mary Poppins bag, it holds a lot more than you’d think.
