I think you mean galley kitchen. In Wikipedia, the term Galley kitchen is also used to refer to the design of household kitchen where the units are fitted into a continuous array with no kitchen table, allowing the maximum use of a restricted space, and allowing work with the minimum of required movement between units. Such kitchens increase storage space by working vertically, with hanging pots, dish racks and ceiling-hung cabinets common. Strictly, the term refers to a kitchen with the units in two facing lines, but is often used to refer to u-shaped kitchens as well.

I believe the term is "Galley" referring to an area used to prepare food on a ship/boat. It has also evolved to mean a design style for a kitchen that is layed out as two parallel work areas. Galley kitchens are open at both ends to allow passage through the work space into other areas. This is a very efficient kitchen layout for small spaces.

A "galley" kitchen is a narrow kitchen where the counters are on either side of the walking space. The term "Galley" comes from the kitchens on boats or ships

One walkway between two banks of cabinets and appliances on either side.
