Good to see the final Professional pics Jamie - makes it look almost as good as it does in real life. Somehow my phone pics just don't do that. You gotta post some of the fish though!
Was a good project to work on, cheers.

Thanks to Cheekytiki for the intro on this project.
I worked very closely with Jamie to ensure the branding reflected his interior design work.
Drinks Menu is in the style of a vintage Uk passport, with drinks as country stamps. The food menu is a boarding card. We also made a luggage tag for the first night opening.
