Where one might see utensils and cold chicken? (7)

I believe the answer is:

kitchen

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where one might' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.

'utensils and cold chicken?' is the wordplay.
'utensils' becomes 'kit' (utensils are bits of kit).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'cold' becomes 'c' (eg on taps).
'chicken?' becomes 'hen' (hen is a kind of chicken).
'kit'+'c'+'hen'='KITCHEN'

'see' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for kitchen that I've seen before include "Galley" , "Place for cooking food" , "where food is a concern" , "food prepared here" , "Area for preparing meals" .)
