New York City bans natural gas in new buildings

i wonder if this type of niche use case would be best served by an lp gas tank type situation rather than outfitting an entire building with gas piping.

my guess is, most people in most cooking situations would never need restaurant grade stove tops. but like we do now, us nerds with nerdy niche cases will figure out how to do it for ourselves with elaborate projects :p

That might seem niche from a Eurocentric perspective, but a gas burner is probably the most ubiquitous cooking appliance around the world. A lot of the worlds cuisine has been developed around cooking on top of one.

Sure, but high BTU (restaurant grade)? Most people are going to have a learning curve as they burn food trying to get used to the insane heat output.
