Rosemary Shrager’s Cookery School – Worktop Installation by Touchstone

Touchstone Worktops Ltd. are proud to have successfully completed the installation of Silestone ‘Lyra’ polished worktops for Rosemary Shrager’s Cookery School at The Pantiles, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent, which is opening in May 2013.

Rosemary Shrager, alongside her Executive Chef John Rogers, personally undertook the selection of the stunning Silestone ‘Lyra’ worktops which make up the school’s cookery demonstration area and the client cooking islands. With the size of each island requiring Silestone’s impressive jumbo size quartz slabs, the overall effect the worktops have on the finished school is breath-taking.

The bright white background colour of the ‘Lyra’ quartz worktops feature dramatic marble effect veining, making the stunning Silestone ‘Lyra’ material a prestigious high-end feature of the school. Executive Chef John Rogers (@Chefscouse) commented on Twitter that the new ‘shiny worktops are a distraction’. The beautiful quartz worktops have superior qualities to a natural stone surface and were fitted to ‘Cook’s Kitchen’ units by Mark Wilkinson Furniture.

The worktops feature Silestone’s unique built-in ‘Bacteriostatic’ agent which give the installation its food-safe credentials, making the worktops as beautiful as they are resistant, guaranteeing maximum hygiene. All Silestone product has been awarded the LGA’s ‘Hygiene Tested’ certification and also has the international NSF accredited certification for direct contact with any food type, making the application of the product in the cookery school an ideal food-safe partner.

Touchstone Worktops Ltd. are London’s leading Silestone ‘Gold Standard Approved Fabricator’ and having been established in 1997 the company has long standing relations to the Silestone brand. Touchstone Worktops Ltd.  demonstrate outstanding attention to detail on all the finished products they supply and have an exceptional and experienced team of in-house stonemasons and fitters. Rosemary Shrager’s Executive Chef John Rogers commented that the whole Touchstone operation was ‘like a well-oiled machine’.
