The Restored Cafe Art is a blog about a restaurant around the US that brings back its old space. It tells the history of the place from its build date and renovation to current news. It also has images of the restored places.

Around the US you can find old restaurant signs that have been restored and given new life. The Restored Cafe Art blog catalogues them and tells the stories behind them.

The work that went into restoring these pieces is substantial and many of these are not “restored” in the sense most people imagine. They’ve been transformed beyond recognition, but in a way that somehow makes them feel more alive than they ever were before. Some of these artists are true alchemists: their art has gone from lead to gold or even silver.

 I love this idea of “restoring.” Many of us like old things, but we don’t want to keep them old. We want to restore them to their original glory! But what if they never had their original glory? What if they were always kind of crummy? In that case we can make something amazing out of them. We can take something sad and forgotten and give it new life.

The Restored is a blog about a restaurant that takes you back to the past. This place was originally from New York. It was a small cafe. But, it had great ambiance with its art deco features. It’s an Italian café, and you will also be amazed about their delicious food.

This wonderful café had gone through a lot of changes since it was first opened in 1930 to its closing date in 1979. It was demolished to make way for another building and so the memory of this old café faded away into oblivion. But thankfully, the memory of this place has been revived by a group of people who regard restoration as one of their hobbies. They have gone as far as possible in restoring this beautiful café to its former glory.

The group calls themselves “Restored N Y Café Society.” The members are all passionate with this project and they even have their own website which is called Restoredcafeart.com . They have all the details about the original restoration work that include the history, photographs, videos and even a blog which depicts the progress of their work on restoring this old place.*

Restored Cafe Art is a blog about restaurants that bring back the art inside their walls. Many restaurants, in order to save money, will remove the art that used to adorn their walls. Fortunately, there are some who decide to do the opposite. This blog is dedicated to those restaurateurs and those who preserve these paintings and photographs. The blog started in January 2015 and has been growing ever since.*

The blog was started by a man named David who had visited a restaurant and was curious about what happened to the art there. He decided to start a blog about restaurants and their history of art.*

David has traveled all around America visiting different cafes in his free time. He takes pictures of the art inside the walls and posts them on Instagram for his followers. Every piece of art has its own story, which David tries his best to find out. The stories vary from artist bios and information about how a particular piece was acquired, or even the history behind it.*

To give you an example, there is a painting by Alexander Calder in one of these restaurants called Café Atlántico in New York City. Calder was very famous for his mobiles, which were very popular in the 1920s, but then he fell into obscurity before he died in 1976. Café

As the conversation progressed, I realized that this was not just for nostalgia’s sake, but about preserving an important part of American history.

In the late 1800s and early 1900s, immigrant populations in cities like New York and Chicago were often segregated from the rest of society. In an effort to keep their traditions alive and pass on an appreciation of their native cultures, ethnic groups opened restaurants and cafes, creating unique places where visitors could come to share a meal, enjoy entertainment and maybe even learn a new language. Through the art, decorations and menu items, these cafes came to embody a cross-section of cultures, inviting patrons to experience something new and different.

As times changed and social attitudes evolved, many of these establishments closed or were remodeled into something more “American.” Today there are few such cafes left in their original form offering a glimpse into how earlier generations made do with what they had.

Taste Budds has tried to preserve some of that history through its on-going series called “Restored Cafe Art” which takes customers back in time through photos taken during the restoration process.

The project began when Taste Buds founder Zachary Kissler noticed some of his cafe’s artwork was starting to peel off the walls. He knew that if it were

The cafe art blog is a website exclusively about the restoration of this cafe. The owner, Aaron Wunsch, opened up a new concept in which he totally renewed the whole business. The place was old and outdated, but now it’s brand new and fresh.

The cafe art at the Cafe Art was painted by artist, R.B. Kitaj. The paintings were done in 1973 and were lost during a renovation of the cafe in 1994. When the cafe reopened, the new owner considered the paintings to be of little value and destroyed them.

The paintings were not destroyed completely, however. The owner of the cafe had ordered that the paintings be covered with canvas tarps before they could be destroyed. After some time had passed, he was contacted by a restaurant critic who was also interested in R.B. Kitaj’s work. This restaurateur took it upon himself to remove one of these tarps and discovered a Kitaj original underneath.”

The painting below is an example of how well they restored it to its original state:
