Retro chic....

I've come to the conclusion that the people at Food Fight, Inc., the owners of several restaurants in the Madison area, including Monty's Blue Plate Diner and Delmonico's, have a penchant for the retro. Delmonico's and and Monty's both feature art deco decor, the former being swanky and the the latter being delightfully colorful. It turns out they also own the Hubbard Avenue Diner in Middleton, which also features the same delightful WWII-era art deco style, even when just seen from the outside. While browsing their website I found similar styles in some of their other restaurants, though some of the decor could be said to be Arts & Crafts influenced.
