🍴 Rochester Food：Chortke Edition

🍴 Rochester Food：Chortke Edition｜A Little Mediterranean Delight Last week a colleague highly recommended this Mediterranean spot Chortke, especially praising their lamb chops, so we made sure to visit this week! And it did not disappoint～ 😋 The restaurant feels cozy, the dishes are beautifully presented, and items marked with a star on the menu are bestsellers—pretty safe to order blind! 🌟 Recommended Dishes： 🍖 Lamb Lollipop Highly recommend this one! 🍭 The lamb chops are grilled perfectly—crispy outside, tender and juicy inside, well-seasoned without being too salty or spicy. What makes it special is the pistachio purée and nut crumble underneath—layers of texture, crunchy and creamy, so satisfying with every bite! 🌰✨ 🦢 Foie Gras What a pleasant surprise to find such delicious foie gras in Rochester! The foie gras is seared to a silky tenderness, melting in your mouth, served with tangy-sweet fruit compote and thin crispy toast that perfectly balances the richness. Flavorful and well-balanced—definitely some of the best foie gras in town! 🍞🍓 Not Recommended： 🥩 Special of the Day (Australian Steak) This 12oz Australian steak was a bit disappointing…😔 The meat was quite fatty, felt greasy after just a few bites, and didn’t feel worth the price. The side rice was sweet and helped cut the grease a little, but overall it just tasted like eating fat—not recommended. 💸 🥔 Potatoes with Hummus The hummus underneath leaned sour, which didn’t suit my personal taste. The potatoes themselves were fine, but the combination felt a bit off—so I’d skip this one too. 🧄 Ambiance & Service： The décor is simple yet stylish, with soft lighting—great for catching up with friends or a date. The staff were friendly, and the pacing was comfortable～ 🍽️💖 If you’re in Rochester and want to try something different, Chortke is a nice choice for Mediterranean flavors! Just stick to the starred items, avoid the steak and hummus, and you should have a delicious meal～ 😄 #StudyAbroadEats#FoodExploration#Rochester#RochesterFood#MediterraneanCuisine#FoodRecommendation#FoodDiary
