1) reduce bounce ( max depth ) to 8 as posted above. 8 is enough and will speed up render.
2) I'm assuming your using PMC as your render kernel.
3) Take max rejects down to 100 ( from 500 ) this will 'bias' your render more but it will clean it up faster so you can either have more samples per time or reduce the samples for any set time.
4) adding some lights on in the kitchen with definitely make a difference - if you want to make that choice.
5) check that you dont have any pure white surfaces using RGB 255,255,255
good luck!
How to reduce the bounce?
