These menus have spared no expense, starting with the white on white embossed cover that features a range of food items and helps to literally raise the logo off the cover. The wood planks are nice and smooth, with a swift notch for the rubber band. Inside, the highlight is the meticulously arranged photographs for some of the items on the menu. I love the different colored tables and how well they help frame each plate. The typography doesn’t look as tight as the overall presentation but with photos like that, that’s not a big problem.
