Agree, solid and inlayed panals is probably the preferred method.
I have built several kitchens over the years

my preferred method is to make a skeleton frame from 1" x 1" wood, then fit solid wood doors to this frame; also it is easy to sit whatever type of work surface to it. I have fitted granite to my house in Chiang Mai, but will prob use solid wood to my new house in Mai Rim

Not only do the cabinets look good, they can be fitted to any space and last as long as you want.
