Seeking Woodworking Advice
#5

    it looks like the top is in pretty good condition.. If the veneer is separating in some areas in the center of the cabinet, you can take some titebond glue and mix it with a little water [to thin it down] 
  Get a large syringe from a medical supply house. Put the glue in it and find an area where the veneer has lifted.
  Inject the glue between the veneer and the top. Wipe off any excess glue with a damp rag and clamp it or use  heavy weights to hold it down until it is dry. The spot where you inject the glue will not be seen after  you are done
  I do this before  stripping, as any excess glue will be on the lacquer instead of seeping into the pores of the wood.
 I have done this on some tops that were very bad and the results are quite good.
