Abstract: What is disclosed an improved spatula-tong combination culinary tool, wherein the tong member is coupled to the spatula member in a way such that the tong member is movable to and from one side of the spatula member via a hinged/pivotable/rotatable coupling, and wherein the hinged/pivotable/rotatable coupling is disposed such that the tong member can bias food from a cooking surface onto the spatula from the side of the spatula and the axis of rotation of the tong member is orthogonal with respect to the planar surface of the spatula. In variations, the tool-heads of the improved culinary tool are detachably removable and changeable to other tool members, including the ability to interchange the positions of the spatula member and the tong member, in case a user prefers to bias target food items onto the spatula member from one side or another.
