What's in a place?


What makes a place/shop/restaurant/space special or memorable? These are the types of questions that I'm considering these days as I consider a new venture...This restaurant has elements that I like - cosiness, attention to detail and a nice inviting entrance. I've not been to the place, but I can imagine it. Do you think the food is good?
