Porcelain Slate Rowan Menu Notice
/porcelainSlateRowanMenuNotice
Design philosophy: explore a cooler local-business café system with porcelain-white sections, pale slate hairlines, blue-black typography, golden stars, and a dry rowan-orange accent used sparingly for booking decisions. Core beliefs: the page should feel like a carefully typeset noticeboard translated into a website—practical, review-led, and quietly atmospheric. Strict rules: light navbar with simple links, tall hero featuring exterior signage, table linen, or window-seat photography, compact review proof beside actions, centered headline with number of reviews, owner-maintainable story blocks, fine-ruled HTML menu table, one rowan announcement strip, background-image section with legible overlay, and address/hours/contact columns. Typography philosophy: pair Perpetua, Baskerville, or Plantin with Source Serif 4 or Georgia; body copy remains serif, dark, and robust. Spacing: steady, ruled, never precious. Motion: button darkening and soft fades only. Imagery: printed menus, trays, glass reflections. Refuses SaaS cards, badges, avatars, beige. Mediocre implementation: orange takeaway menu page. Common mistakes: overusing rowan, heavy overlays, inconsistent gutters.
