Grand Opening of Cork Wine Bar at Pearland Town Center

Scenes around the new Pearland Town Center

Yesterday evening we met friends for dinner at the New Pearland Town Center in Pearland, Texas.


After dinner, they invited us to the grand opening of Cork Wine Bar, a modernist bar with just the right touch of dark, sultry woods and beautifully done low lighting. One of Cork's bars is the traditional take on a bar with a bartender; then there is a long, sleek bar that has seating on both sides, a design which promotes face-to-face conversation. Then there is the knock-out, back-lit, wall-to-wall wine rack. This all adds up to warm, cozy chic.

This has got to be the coolest wine rack conceived, from both a design and a technical perspective: the lighting is a high-tech lighting that remains cool, so as not to warm the wine.
Best wishes to owners, David and Kimberly Swartz. That's some cool wine bar you have!
