That’s got to be the tackiest signage in Bethesda! That type of wall mounted lighting creates a very un-even form of lighting with lots of hot spots and dark areas. Perhaps they should have Called Their Signage Designer.
ReplyDeleteWhich one are you Red, White, or Rose'? Get a life would ya!
DeleteI thought the exact same thing! Looks tacky!
DeleteIt should not have taken that long to open. And some snarky person here jumped all over my comment initially on this. Meanwhile, Pop Up Bagel set its opening for just days after this place. Pop Up started it's construction much later and is opening almost the same time. What gives? Despite all that, and their ugly sign, this will be good for Bethesda. Bethesda Bagel is an institution but stinks. Call Your Mother is very good. Pop Up is a pass.
ReplyDeleteSnark? On this here blog? I am shocked, shocked!
DeleteStick to Einstein Winestein, you'll be doing all of us a favor.
DeleteBecause you know their business plan and understand their strategy?

ReplyDeleteMother's space was a furniture store for years. Had to be converted back to restaurant use.
ReplyDeletePopup is moving into a brand new space - maybe it's easier starting from a blank page.
Just Another Crab was too lame to figure that out all by himself.
DeleteUgh on this paint job. I guess we’ll get used to it.
ReplyDeleteYo' Mama!
