Award-winning Design & Construction Teams Pair Up to Build Austin Kitchen and Wine Bar, Fork & Vine

Austin, Texas (PRWEB) June 16, 2014

Once a relatively quiet suburbia, the Anderson-Shoal Creek-Burnet corridor is now home to a booming population, including a bevy of young Austin professionals. Recognizing the energy of the neighborhood, restaurateur Brendan Puthoff called on the collaborative power of Dick Clark and Associates and Pinnacle Construction to design and build his latest epicurean venture, Fork & Vine (http://www.forkvine.com).

Construction has ofcially begun on the 5,200+ square foot, 229-seat Austin-inspired kitchen and wine bar, taking the anchor spot of the Creekside Square Shopping Center. Fork & Vine is a natural evolution for Puthoff Holdings, developer of Third Base Sports Bars and Mighty Bird restaurants and past owner of Hickory Street.

We wanted to bring to Shoal Creek a restaurant with rened food and excellent service, yet have it remain casual in spirit, said Puthoff. And nobody expresses this concept through architecture better than Dick Clark and Associates (http://www.dcarch.com).

I really love their design style, Puthoff said of Dick Clark. The rm is well known for creating sleek, comfortable interiors including their creative use of unique materials. Dick Clark has designed an incredible restaurant that exceeded our expectations from a functionality, style, and renement perspective. Our customers are going to love Fork & Vine.

The Austin Power Team

According to Katy Wise, Project Manager and Architect, the rm has designed over 50 restaurants, including Austins FINO, Soleil, Ruths Chris Steakhouse and Kenichi.

By the end of 2014, the trending phrase for going out for a memorable evening in Austin will be, Lets go to Anderson, said Wise.

The Dick Clark team brought in long-time partner Pinnacle Construction (http://www.pinnacleaustin.com), a 25-year industry construction veteran, for their technical expertise, superior eye for detail, and rich history in restaurant construction.
