hungry's cafe & bistro on memorial

Converting an existing 4,225 SF cafeteria style restaurant building into this new cafe & bistro was undertaken following several guiding principles:  new spatial and functional requirements, a new image to reflect the upscale neighborhood and its clientele, and a limited construction budget.

Through the addition of an exterior walk-in cooler/freezer/storage room and the extensive remodeling of an outdoor dining area, the seating capacity was increased substantially, while also dramatically improving the restaurant's operational efficiency. 

By adding just a few carefully designed new architectural elements and through thoughtful use of colors, the exterior image of the building was substantially transformed and improved with only minimal reconstruction necessary.
