Wherever you go, you’re bound to find more than a few interesting murals, sidewalk signs, and menu designs. Today, we’re highlighting some cool and unique restaurant inventions and decor choices that keep people coming back for more.
#1: A Subtle Transformation
When this Chinese food restaurant changed hands and turned into a Mexican food restaurant, the new owners didn’t feel the need to overhaul the decor. They decided to play into their strengths by transforming the decor that was already there. The Mexican restaurant decided to add their own pizzazz to this old mural.
The old Chinese restaurant had this cute panda mural painted on the wall. Instead of painting over it and pretending it never existed, the new owners painted sombreros on each of the pandas. It makes no sense, but it somehow works. It’s a unique feature that no other restaurant in the world has on its walls. How’s that for innovation?
