Abstract

A galley (10) for an aircraft comprises a plurality of electrical kitchen appliances (24) that differ functionally from one another. Of these, at least a partial number of at least two electrical appliances comprise in each case an operator control unit (26), which is manufactured structurally separate from a main functional part of the relevant appliance and has an arrangement of operator control elements for operator control of the appliance. The operator control units are in this case designed to be of an identical construction to one another from appliance to appliance.
