Restaurant Design: Salt not up to snuff
My last night in Baltimore was spent at Salt, a restaurant touted to be the place where the beautiful people go to enjoy both the food and the cutting edge decor. Hip decor? Great food? Gotta go.
The food was tasty. The decor? Well, see for yourself.
I felt like I was sitting under a Saturn 5 rocket. The restaurant is tiny – there’s no getting away from the green lighting.¬† What were they thinking? Green isn’t the best way to highlight food, or the faces of all those beautiful people (who seemed to have taken the night off).
What’s your opinion? How would you overhaul Salt? Or, perhaps it should is remain unshaken?

I think you got that spot on!
To me it looks like all the diners are under a giant heating lamp. Maybe Salt couldn’t afford the restaurant equipment they needed so they made their dining area do double duty as a warming area.
