The name itself – The Forking Cork is indeed cheeky and considered one of a hidden gem in OUG. The Forcking Cock is a wine and whisky bar where their original objective is to be a place for business meet up. Besides that, it is also perfect for some of you that love to hang out some where nearby and need not drive all the way to KL to enjoy your alcohol intake.
A simple place that have wide range of wine for you to choose and some other whisky choices.
Simple decor with some barrels base of a table, sofa seating area or normal dining seating settings is great for your choices on what kind of settings you are keen to park at.
They do not have a wine list for you as you need to walk into their trespassers zone, upon opening the door, you will be greeted with wide range of wine selection that sitting nicely at those shelves.
The Forking Cork Wine range is as cheap from RM 99 – RM xx,xxx, depending on your own preference.
food range is very direct where only have 2 -4 pages for you to flip on.
Ordered Spaghetti Carbonara with Bacon & Sausage, @ RM 24 is something very simple, delicious where it is creamy enough to my liking.
Grilled Lamb Rack with Plum Sauce @ RM 40, is well marinated and grilled to perfection where the sauce is just nice, yet not overpowering if you were to pair with wine
Pan Seared Norwegian Salmon with Avocado Lemon Cream Sauce @ RM 30 – recommended is cook to perfection where you can still see the mild pink colour on the meat. Season with nice crumbs and their lemon cream sauce is the one that to hunt for.
Grilled Iberico Pork with HOney Mustard Glaze @ RM 45 is cook to perfection. Soft enough yet it is still juicy where, bed of mash potato at the bottom pairs it perfectly.
I quite like this, Pan Seared Avocado Stuffed Chicken Wrapped in Bacon @ RM 28. If you are enjoying your whisky or dry wine, then to pair with this dish is just nice. Flavour of the black paper did not over power the dish where saltiness of bacon and little creamy of avocado bring up the taste.
Chicken Teriyaki is one of a easier dish for food pair, that can always go along with beer or whisky.
I love my Deep fried chicken Popcorn to be slightly more golden brown, where if they fried it another minute, Their homemade honey mustard dressing is a bomb. The sauce went dry after half of the basked was gone. We asked for refill where this Sour, with mild spicy is just encouraging us to keep on dipping.
Deep Fried Shrimp Paste Chicken Wings (4pcs) @ RM 16
We had a great night, with 2 bottles of wine for 5 pax. Nope, We did not overkill ourselves and a great place to hang out as their wine price range starting from RM 88 all the way to RM 5,000. Depending how deep is your pocket.
