That’s incredible! Great find! Either it’s a remarkable coincidence or the writer or her editor is a secret type lover.

Does make you wonder what the restaurant’s sign is set in; it seems like too good an opportunity to pass up.

Found their logo (at the bottom of this PDF). Sadly, there’s no Mistral to be found; just Bodoni or some other modern.

that makes me very sad. I often call restaurants by their font names with my friends. It’s also fun giving people directions by signage fonts, which is what I thought this article was getting at for a quick second.
