Aberdeen deli to open again after fire

An Aberdeen deli will re-open today three weeks after it was damaged by a fire.

Prego on the city’s Fountainhall Road will resume normal business after it was forced to close when a fire broke out in a kitchen on August 1.

The blaze, which was sparked by a gas leak from an oven, caused extensive smoke damage to the building, with the cooking range and vents completely ruined as a result.

Firefighters had to battle for more than half an hour to bring the fire under control, and had to shut the adjacent road between Queens Lane and Carlton Place as a result.

Last night, owner, Allan Henderson, praised the quick-thinking of his staff after they quickly turned the gas and electricity supply off, helping prevent the fire from spreading to other parts of the building.

“I was obviously incredibly disappointed that the fire broke out, but I’d like to thank the staff who were working that morning, as it was their quick-thinking, along with the fantastic work of the emergency services, that really did save the fire from spreading further,” he said.

“The damage was extensive. We’ve had to replace all the kitchen’s flooring and wall coverings, as well as replace the cooking range and vents that were ruined by the blaze.

“I’m delighted that no one was injured during the accident; it really could have been a lot worse.”
