Goodness me, I'd never look for the useful drawer in the kitchen. What a strange idea :)
I have noticed over the years, though, that there is a very definite convention in kitchens about where the cutlery drawer is. I reckon that in any unfamiliar kitchen, a visitor would hit the cutlery drawer right first time. (Sometimes it's obvious because there's very few contenders, but even in kitchens with lots of drawers there's a clear Obvious Choice.)
New flat (into which I am moving) caused mild panic initially, because it appears to have no drawers in the kitchen at all. Fortunately some were located in a unit which was pretending to be a cupboard.
