Trevor you can get smoke detectors specifically for the kitchen areas - I think that these are photoelectric rather than ionisation in their detection mechanism and are hence less prone to false triggers.

But I know what you mean - our toaster, or even boiling the kettle used to set off the alarm in the kitchen until we changed to a kitchen-specific detector.
