The term "kitchen piping" used to be a somewhat negative term for casual busking and ceilidh players who favored more popular jigs and reels over serious marches and piobaireachd. When I started learning to play back in the '80s I don't believe anyone sold an instrument called the kitchen bagpipe....but there were a couple of different "parlour pipes" .....with drones that I recall being about half sized but tied into the bag the same as the GHB. It was a great bridge instrument for awhile and sounded pretty good. This was a D. Naill instrument and used sets might still be available. If you want to play with other instruments, though, a good set of small pipes, as Haukehaien suggests, would be your best bet.
