Cork's at the Irish Fair - Part Deux

Last week we let everyone know about the Battle of the Pubs Cook Off at the Irish Fair of Minnesota. (You can still get your tickets, so you can stump for Cork's)!



We also wanted to give a lowdown on our other activities at the Fair, so you can stay tuned and join us for a great time!  

The morning of the Battle of the Pubs (August 11), Chef will actually be doing a spot on the Fox 9 Morning Show at about 8:45am. Then, we'll have our A-game out in full force for the Battle of the Pubs at 7pm that evening. 

From August 12 to August 14, we'll be sponsoring the Pub Tent, and Chef will be performing a cooking demo on the Gateway Stage on Sunday, August 14, at noon. 

The Fair itself runs August 12-14, Friday from 3pm to 11 pm, Saturday from 10am to 11pm, and Sunday from 10am to 7pm and is open to the public entirely FREE of charge. 

Mark your calendars for an epic weekend of great food, fantastic drinks, and merriment like you've never seen before! S'lainte and we'll see you there!

Battle of the Pubs

Coming up in August, Cork's will be competing in the Irish Fair of Minnesota's Battle of the Pubs Cook Off. We need all of our loyal supporters there to represent for us!


On Thursday, August 11, Cork's will go head to head against other local pubs to determine who's the "farest"! For the price of admission to this event, you get all the food, drink, and entertainment you can stomach.

The fun goes down at Harriet Island inside the Pub Tent. Attendees will sample offerings from pub contestants while listening to the jamming stylings of the Wild Colonial Bhoys (who are releasing their first CD at the event). Then, attendees will vote on their favorite food and beverages.

Visit http://www.irishfair.com/content/cooktickets/ to purchase your tickets today! $15 in advance, $20 at the door, and Friends of the Fair members get tickets for only $10! (Current members call 952-474-7411 to order your tickets today).

May the best pub win!
