What colours or combo of colours would you suggest to decorate a fast-food- and intimate French Restaurant?
I am looking to re-decorate a Fast-food Restaurant which is part of a busy exhibition complex and looking for scheme ideas?
The French Restaurant is small and intimate (10-12 tables for 2-4) in the High Street of Cape Town. I am looking for colour ideas!
Yikes, I hope the French don’t equate to FAST food, smile.
Their color schemes vary, from dark and subtle to animated and bright. Obviously you could use the contries flag colors. gads.
Teal greens, camel, varying shades of Red and Yellow, not so many Earth tones, or stained wood finishes,,, OR go very contemporary with stainless and black, or whatever.
Personally, I’d do it cafe style, using the illusion of having the customer seated just outside the restaurant, as if they were dining on a sidewalk patio.
Maurice has a tiny place on the Left Bank, and he chooses DARK, but also has a patio overlooking the river, and offers boat tour dining.
Just my two “sense”
Bon Appetit

Learn French Fast!
You’ve tried every method of learning French known to man (or woman) and nothing works. It’s as if your mind is a sieve and every baffling grammatical rule pours through it like sand. What can you do to learn French fast?
Think about it, children from all over the world in Europe, Africa and America have been learning to speak French fast for as long as the French language existed. They do it quite naturally, by growing up in a French-speaking country or having French-speaking parents.
Pardon? You are not living in France, you don’t have French-speaking parents or friends and you are not a child any more? True, however you will need to learn the French language the same way a child do! The best way to learn French fast is by listening to it as it is spoken clearly, simply, and naturally, by native French speakers.
One of the most convenient ways to accomplish this is to purchase a good quality audio-based French language program. The speakers are extremely easy to understand, and the programs are humorous and engaging. A good French audio learning program will emphasis clearly on listening and speaking rather than reading because this is the best way for a person to learn French fast and effectively. It is also important to learn how to read and write the French language, that’s why some of these French learning programs will also provide you with software games with which you can learn French grammar, vocabulary and learning verbs in a fun interactive way.
But if all you did was sit in front of your computer and listen to audio lessons, the joy of learning French would vanish quickly. It’s not enough to learn French fast, you need to retain it, and you can only do this if you actually use the language. The best way to do that is to make French friends. Do anything you can to speak the French language with a native French speaker.
Where can you find one? I’ll bet that with a little effort, you can find dozens! Visit your local College and make an appointment to speak with the French teachers. If none of them are native speakers of French, they undoubtedly know some. French speaking people love it when you speak in French to them and they are very interesting and charming people when you get to know them better! Once they find out you are learning French, they’ll want to speak French with you all the time. As this occurs, you’ll be astonished at how effortlessly your command of the language will grow. You’ll learn French faster that way than by any other method you could choose.
Undoubtedly your new French speaking friends would like to share their world and culture with you, make use of these unforgettable opportunities whenever they are presented to you. Listen to French popular music, watch French movies, with or without subtitles, and eat in French restaurants. And of course, if you can, visit a French-speaking country for a total immersion experience! That’s the ultimate way to really learn French fast!
