Not Fooling Anybody
We've  all seen them. Heck, maybe we've even dined in them. But nobody is fooled by these architectural mixed messages that reek of culinary contradiction. You know, the El Pollo Loco that looks suspiciously like a defunct Toys 'R' Us? Or the distinctive Pizza Hut shack reincarnated as Chinese Hut? For every scratched head and double-take that has occurred in this great nation of overeaters, this site commiserates by chronicling and skewering truly lame attempts at storefront conversions. See Gino's misguided attempt to pass off Planet Hollywood architectural flourishes as artistic pizza slices and witness a former Long John Silver's transformation into a bland building from the Far East. We undoubtedly have not see the last of these crimes of design, so why not embrace the blight and report a few culture clashes in your area? (in Food and Drink Humor) |
