Looks like a normal hinge to me. What looks like a large round flat part of the hinge is really a hole in the flat backer for the hinge to stick into and a plate to be attached.

Good observation, Leo. That could be. Hinge installation and adjustment doesn't look like much fun.

Pull the drawer out next to it and you should have access.
But I didn't say it would be easy LOL
Adjust them before the counters go on and you should be good to go as long as nothing changes or a hinge goes bad.

I'd use blind corner hinges.

I ended up recessing the outlet box back a bit further and used a regular long arm Blum hinge for this. Allowed me to use soft close and still adjustable with a stubby screwdriver.

Good for you....seems like a pain in the ass to me anyway with that thing flopped down banging your leg into it every time you turn around. Some people are too stubborn to realize that an outlet on the side of a island is so inconspicuous in the whole scheme of everything that you usually never notice them. Some have more money than sense though.
