| - "So how did you find Uncorked?"
This was the first question asked to me by Ali (the owner) as we sat down on a plush victorian sofa.
"My girl found it", I confidently said, as she gave a sweet smile to the two of us.
We were then presented with, dare to say it "cute" menus along with a wine list which she noted offered half off flights on Mondays, SCORE!
I had a Sauvignon Blanc flight which believe it or not, was probably one of the better Blanc selections I've ever come across for 7 bucks and change, impressive.
What lacked was the food, the cheese plate (which is your wine bar staple) had an astounding 17 dollar price tag that we fell for, what we got however wasn't a 17 dollar plate though, you don't serve mini toasts with exotic cheeses - that's just not right.
Next up were the stuffed mushrooms with crab and what tasted like bleu cheese, again, good concept however the damn fromage was so strong one really couldn't taste what the idea was really meant to offer.
To wrap it up I'll go back for sure but only for vino as like the claim states, it really is unpretentious, uncommon for Fakesdale.
