Restaurants and cork

I ate in my fair share of restaurants this holiday season - from upscale restaurants to cafes and order at the bar greasy spoons. In my restaurant hopping, I saw various types of decor.

Yes - the main reason we go to restaurants is to eat and drink however who doesn't love a restaurant with great decor? Cork with all its unique characteristics is a great fit for the decor of a restaurant - from cork flooring to cork wall panels, from cork ceilings to cork chairs.

The accessories in a restaurant also help set the mood. Beautiful cork menus (made of either cork fabric or cork wallpaper) and wine cork menu boards (made by reusing wine corks) are creative ways of displaying menus and also make interesting conversation pieces.
