RESTAURANT REVIEW
CORK
TYPE: CONTINENTAL FINE DINING
LOCATION: 150 NEW OREGON AVENUE, BEND, OREGON
HOURS: DINNER
PHONE: 541-382-6881
WEBSITE:  
DATE OF REVIEW: SEPTEMBER 21, 2005
REVIEWED BY:  VIV & JILL

MENU ITEMS:
 
  • Cork salad - Jill tried the salad and was delighted with her choice.
  • Tuscan Bread Soup with cracked black pepper creme fraiche - Viv loved the soup, but had missed the "bread"
    part when the server was explaining the menu and wondered why there was soggy bread at the bottom of the
    bowl.  Great relief when the light bulb went on!  Enjoyed this wonderfully flavored soup.
  • Flat Iron Halibut served with sticky rice with a orange cream and tropical crab slaw - Nice portion of halibut, moist
    and cooked to perfection.  
  • Chocolate Hazelnut Torte with a sprig of mint and dollop of whipped cream, plate garnished with dried cherries -
    great way to finish a fine meal.
  • Bottle of Sonoma Cutrer Chardonnay - $35

How many were seated at your table?  4

Credit Cards accepted?  Yes
Recommendations: As this was a special event that Cork was participating in - "3 for $23" - (3 courses for $23), it
would of been nice if the restaurant had taken the time to print out a small menu indicating the items they were serving
for this event.  Although the waitress did a fine job of conveying the three course menu to our table, it is nice to be able
to read it too.
Would we return or recommend?:  Definitely YES!
