Do you ever throw dinner parties where everyone gets their own cooking station and can build their own meal? Ya, me neither. But if you did, the Mini-Woks would be for you.
Take the idea of a wok, with its large surface, prime for fast cooking, and flipping, and shrink it. Then put it on a hot plate and then times this by six. Ya, Mini-Woks are for the people who either have six family members or entertain a lot.
