Managing Director, Scott Purdom of Robert Sinclair Interiors said: “We have been looking at creating an additional presence within the consumer market for some time and wasted no time in taking the site when it became available.โ€

“The last 12 months have been spent creating a flagship showroom that marks a new way of displaying the products we manufacture and sell.โ€

“For the first time ever we have gone for large room sets rather than lots of smaller displays to provide a real-life ambience.

“When people visit we want them to enjoy an experience and make it as exciting and pleasurable as possible – weโ€™ve even got an operational kitchen so that we can regularly hold cooking demonstrations.โ€

Michelin Star Finish at Local Interior Design Showroom

Recently opened bespoke kitchen and bathroom designers Robert Sinclair Interiors have teamed up with the Dundee Cooking Academy to produce a great offer for new clients.  If you buy a new kitchen from the Forfar based design experts, theyโ€™ll provide you with a voucher for the Dundee Cooking Academy.

Robert Sinclair Interiors Managing Director Scott Purdom said:-

โ€œWe thought it was a really appropriate way to reward and thank our customers for their business by giving them a voucher so they can attend a masterclass run by two of the most talented chefs in the region.  Weโ€™ve got a fully functioning kitchen in our showroom in Forfar, and Adam and Lewis from the Dundee Cooking Academy very kindly supported our launch weekend by preparing and serving some amazing food in our Robert Sinclair Interiors custom built facility.  They certainly cooked up a storm!โ€  

The Dundee Cooking Academy is part of the Tayste Collective Group, which also includes the Tayberry in Broughty Ferry and Tayble Deli, which is housed in the same building as the Dundee Cooking Academy on Bank Street in the city centre.

Lewis Donegan of the Dundee Cooking Academy said:-

โ€œWeโ€™re delighted to partner with Scott and the team at Robert Sinclair Interiors, their kitchens are manufactured to the highest standard, and Adam and I are hoping that we can help teach their customers to cook to a similar level!โ€

Adam Newth of the Dundee Cooking Academy said:-

โ€œLewis and I are teaching fine dining to clients in Dundee, and weโ€™ve been fortunate enough to work in some fantastic kitchens down the years.  The quality of workmanship from Robert Sinclair Interiors is superb, we were delighted to cook in their facility at their Forfar showroom as part of their launch weekend and weโ€™re thrilled that we can continue to cement our relationship with the voucher scheme Scott is offering to new clients.  Itโ€™s up to us now to help do their kitchens justice with the quality of cookery.โ€
