I’ve heard stories from various cartoonists on the duration of time between selling a cartoon and it appearing in the magazine - sometimes it’s a week or two, other times it can be years. Which actually can be a huge deciding factor for prospective drinkers. Cocktail bars like Death & Co., Canon and Shelby feature drawings of the cocktails next to their descriptions, so you know what kind of glasses they come in. Whether evoking old-school diner placemats with illustrations of food and drinks, or celebrating the restaurant’s home city with a custom map, these illustrations add personality and whimsy to what could otherwise be an unremarkable part of the dining experience. But a handful of restaurants are changing that by presenting customers with visually thoughtful illustrated menus that are more than worthy of their place on the dining room table. Menu design isn’t something that typically claims a lot of space in diners’ minds, so long as the information on them is presented clearly and they’re taken away quickly to be replaced by the meals they describe. It’s wondrously meta.įrom Danny Meyer’s skyscraper restaurant Manhatta to dive bars in Brooklyn, these hand-drawn menu designs are bringing a new level of fun and creativity to the dining experience If you like bookstores, and you would like them to stick around, it’s great.Īlso… if you like bookstores, my friend and fellow New Yorker cartoonist Bob Eckstein did an entire book about bookstores. If you don’t know how Bookshop works: You can select a local independent bookstore from Bookshop’s list, and when you buy a book, that bookstore gets a small commission from the sale. Where possible, I used links to Bookshop or the publisher’s website when possible. That means if you buy books through the links, I will receive a small amount of cash to buy food for Morris. Note: Some of the links below are affiliate links. Many of them I started or skimmed previously but didn’t actually finish until this year. Inspired by Brendan Leonard at SemiRad and his very helpful 2021 Book Recommendation List, I’ve compiled a list of books I enjoyed this year.
But since quitting social media in July, I’ve finished over a dozen books. That’s likely due to the fact that I’ve barely had time to finish a book in the past 7 years. I’ve never really done any book recommendations.
