Dawn dish soap and warm water. Murphy's Oil Soap works well too. What type of cabinets do you have? Stained? Painted? I wipe my cabinets down on a regular basis.
Murphy's oil soap or Krud Kutter.
Any cabinets can be cleaned with Dawn dish detergent, vinegar, and water. Use a mix of equal parts vinegar and water. Then add a teaspoon of Dawn, mix well and put in a spray bottle. Spray and wipe down cabinets.
I like blue dawn in hot water then murphy' soap oil. The blue dawn is a great grease cutter and the murphy soap oil is good for the wood.

Apr 13, 2016 - How to Clean Wood Cabinets. Detergent: Homeowners can use any oil/grease cutting dish or laundry detergent and water to clean their wood cabinets. Vinegar: If you don't have liquid-based detergents, vinegar and water is a valuable substitution. Baking Soda: The hardest stains should be confronted with baking soda.
For "gunk" clean with a paste made from baking soda & white vinegar scrubbing with a child's toothbrush.
After that, clean with furniture polish.
Avoid water and remember if you use Murphy's Oil Soap it will have to rinsed afterwards.
I usually use TSP substitute powder in a spray bottle, spray it on, wipe off with a rag. Grease is gone with no effort and the cabinets are clean.
Liquid fabric softer. Apply with soft toothbrush. wait 10 minutes. Rinse brush. Take same brush wet it. Brush over the area again periodically dipping brush in warm water to remove the build-up. Scrub problem area. Then take a warm cloth and wipe it clean. Don't leave on longer than 20 minutes or it may stain depending on the type of food and varnish.
Don't ever use pure vinegar on wood. it will eat through the wood. Permanently. ( I speak from experience )
Liquid softener is also great for cleaning up white sneakers and tennis shoes. Make them look as white as the day you bought them.
