There.. are two counters that are free. TWO. T-W-O. 2. free COUNTERS!
My sim choosing to cook her food, ON A SINK! IN THE BATHROOM. At the OTHER END OF HER APARTMENT.
If I stop her, drag her cooking to the free counter - she appears to realise WHERE HER KITCHEN IS and uses the right space.
*Changes bathroom counter-sinks to standalone sink* - WE SHALL SEE IF THIS FIXES THE PROBLEM, or if she decides to cook somewhere else OTHER than her kitchen.

But.. but.. there's a sink.. in the kitchen.
Hold SHIFT while using the FRIEZE tool to apply it to a single wall, and not an entire room!
** SailorCeti's Builds **
If you download one of my builds, by all means, leave me a message and tell me what you did and did not like about it.
I see it all the time with dirty dishes too. Walk right past the kitchen sink and 2 floors up to go use a bathroom sink.

Zero does God's work. It may be on Patreon, but all her content is free.
If the cheat was turned on when placing the sink, the game still thinks the slot is unused. Therefore it is valid as a cooking space.
And if this counter happens to be in a straight line from the fridge, then it's preferred to the free counter a few tiles away from the fridge. I first noticed this with trash cans some time ago when emptying toddler potties. The indoor trash can was much closer, but the outdoor trash can was in the same row of squares as the potty, and that's the one they preferred.
MOO seems to screw up more than it fixes. I quit using it when I build.
Changing the sinks didn't work.
Thanks for the link, my friend.
I just WISH they would sort this out without mods, it's a known problem.
Maybe my sims are just smarter. 🤣🤣✌️
I think you're onto something there.
I wish there was a way to remove the impact of object “quality” on how Sims behave. I design houses based on what I think looks nice, not because I want my Sims traipsing to another wing of the house to make a meal. 🤷🏽♀️
I wish they would always consider options within their present room first, then the full floor, and THEN other stories. I would understand it if quality was much higher far away, but still it would not make sense in a daily routine. Nobody would walk an extra mile to use a better looking sink.
I ultimately wound up using a mod to prevent the sims from using the bathroom sink after loading the dish washer with a cup and then getting the rest of the dishes on the lot.
