Contemporary Outdoor Cooking for the Condo Balcony

MILWAUKEE, WI - The condominium or apartment lifestyle is no longer void of outdoor living and cooking thanks to the engineering developments at Sunset Bay Outdoor and Kenyon Grills. The two companies have teamed up to offer a complete premium outdoor entertaining system for those whose homeowners’ association and/or local codes prohibit the use of charcoal, propane or flame cooking on balconies.

The Kenyon grill is also smokeless, avoiding the additional nuisance to neighbors traditionally associated with outdoor cooking. In short, condo owners can now enjoy the same lifestyle and outdoor experiences as their single family dwelling friends without guilt or breaking regulations.

Metro “Epicurean” Outdoor Kitchen and Metro “Steward” Outdoor Buffet Center
The Metro Epicurean Kitchen is 47” long, 24” deep and 37” high. It fits in a traditional balcony and requires a standard outlet for the grill. It ships in flat, manageable boxes that are easy to transport in most any vehicle and carry up stairs or get in an elevator. Once in a home, it takes about 20 minutes to install, consisting of turning 4 thumb screws and tightening 4 Phillips screws. Even the most DIY-deficient person will be able to handle this job with ease. It is also available without a grill as a buffet center to match the grilling center for added balcony entertaining convenience and décor appeal.

The body of the kitchen is made from .090 extruded aluminum that is powder coated with a three-step textured exterior. It has passed a 2000 hour salt & sand spray test and is rated for south Florida climate. Counter tops are solid surface, can be buffed free of incidental scratches and be cleaned to FDA food safe standards. There is ample storage for outdoor living accoutrements to provide convenient access to grilling tools, serving equipment and cleaning supplies outdoors, avoiding multiple trips back into the kitchen. Best of all, textured doors never require the endless polishing and cleaning needed by traditional stainless steel outdoor doors.

“This is a neglected market” noted Sunset Bay Outdoor president, Bob Ehmke. “Just because your home choice does not allow you to perhaps have a spacious outdoor smoking area doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t enjoy outdoor cooking on the patio.” The Metro kitchen is a perfect solution for current residents of apartments or condos because it can also be relocated when they move, so you don’t leave furniture behind for new residents. It is also becoming a component for new multiple family residence developments as an original fixture helping increase the value of the property’s appeal to prospective new buyers or renters.
