Quite a contrast between the tables and the above. I assume this is in France, where?

My favorite of the three, humble and muted, sketchy yet complete. Almost leads one to forget the harsh focus.

Thanks to Roz I don't have to google this. Seems to indicate the 'art of eating'.. the pointing hand to the right says it all. Was this in front of a restaurant or just a billboard you happened upon?

Very graphic in nature, like an illustration. Where did you find this?

This caught my attention the first time around.. such an elegant place to dine. I'm not sure what part the golden rooster plays in this.. maitre d or night watchman.. but he's quite a charming fellow. I love the decorative architecture of the room which you captured very well. It emits a very warm, glowing feeling. Wonder what the menu offers.. hmm.

i had to google Manger-tue .. which came up with eating skills ..
which is a very interesting phrase ..
as its something we learn very young .. the actual act of eating ..
spose the skills come in when we start to use a knife fork spoon chopsticks hands wotever ..
just getting that stuff into you mouth .. can look like a real skill when you watch a baby learning ..
looks like a lobster in the pic .. probably a fair amount of skill involved getting the meat out of its carapace ..
anyway .. i'm liking the person with their hand pointing .. makes this almost humourous .. ;)

this looks like it was painted by a very famous artist .. dont exactly know who ..
the thing that strikes me is that fish .. it looks like its smiling .. which is like a dissonance ..
anyway .. the tones in this are just PERFECT .. with the colour highlighting that poor little fish ..
i feel a bit sad for it .. :(

OMG .. what a dramatic bird ..
almost to beautiful to think of that chicken as food .. !! ..
and what a gorgeous eatery .. i feel like i've stepped back in time ..
even the cash register .. if that's what it is on the lhs ..
i love all that old stuff .. that has been replaced by such clean lines and almost characterless .. (cant think of the word that comes after that ... replacements .. lol . but i've already said that .. )
anyway .. i used to have one of those old remington typwriters .. it was actually quite beautiful .. you know the ones with the keys sticking up on levers sorta .. i had it when i lived in england ... and when i came home i left it behind .. i regret that .. :)
