I recommend putting your everyday dishes/glasses close to your dishwasher. Open the dishwasher and stand next to it and put every day items in cabinet that is easiest to reach with fewest steps.

Put things you use most often on lower/eye level shelves and things you use less often on the top shelves or under cabinets.

I would probably put larger serving pieces (especially seasonal items) over the fridge since that is a hard to reach cabinet.

I would probably display glassware in the glass cabinets over the peninsula. Not sure if you have a china cabinet or not, but I would use that cabinet to display finer pieces.

I don't really have advice, but I just wanted to say what a beautiful kitchen!!! Enjoy it! I love the glass cabinets...I would keep glasses and pretty dishes in them.
