A new family-run, neighbourhood restaurant is opening in South Bristol and aims to bring inclusivity back into high quality cookery. COR will focus on several cuisines with Mediterranean influence, taking over an empty site on North Street.
Restaurant owner Mark Chapman was born and raised in Australia, where he trained and worked in fine dining restaurants across the county. He jumped into the Bristol food scene on moving to the UK in top venues like the Bath Priory and then worked with Season and Taste - owners of Gambas, Bravas, Cargo Cantina and Baker & Co - as an executive chef for six years.
COR will be the first business of his own, which is something he has wanted to do nice he first started as a chef at 16 years old.
