Restaurant: Anticafe / Neighborgood: Paris, France
What I Lettered: Welcome, Hours, Breakfast, Snacks, Lunch, Dinner! (My French is terrible, so that’s the gist of it I believe)
What I Lunched: Bento boxes filled with tofu, salmon, tamago, pickled vegetables, salads, and rice, cookies, croissants, nutella, apples, tea and coffee.
A few weeks ago, French designer Thomas Lin sent me an email about the Will Letter for Lunch project, and it just so happened that I would be traveling through Paris the next week, so we decided to meet up and collaborate on the first international Lettering for Lunch! We lettered the windows of Anticafe, a beautiful cafe/co-working space near the Louvre. The concept is simple and brilliant: everything in the cafe (food, snacks, beverages, and wifi) is free and unlimited; you simply pay for your time there (1 hour is 4 euros and a whole day is 16). After we lettered, we lunched on cookies, croissants, and yummy bento boxes from Bento&Go. Au revoir Paris, merci beaucoup!
