Wombleboy, there are 240v led strips, and that would eliminate the need for a driver, and allow you to wire the strips via a choc box, and then power them in a more normal way. The direction you go will get determined by the kitchen layout, in that using a 12v system that needs a driver, requires you to place the driver somewhere accessible, but also out of the way. If you're leds aren't being dimmed, nor colour changing, then you won't need a controller, just a driver.
Essentially, if you are going for a central bank of "light switches", then you're using these to switch on the drivers, that are invariably plugged into a 13A single gang socket, so you rally need switched units to feed 240v into the sockets.
