Extraordinarily bland new café space
WEEK 11 – Poplar/Kirby Kroger, Set V
Moving much further into the perishables grand aisle, we now get to take a look at the new additions from a different angle. Not only is the cheese shop again visible here, but also the Asian Cuisine area starts to come into view on the left.
The Cheese Shop décor isn’t much to speak of, but that blank space of wall immediately next to it is even worse! It’s literally just a white wall with a trio of generic framed art tacked onto it. This seems to be Kroger’s latest “café décor” for stores that are being retrofitted to host new café seating areas (a near-identical setup was added to the Trinity Commons store, somewhat visible – albeit in an incomplete state – here)… and I am not at all a fan. Literally *anything* else could be added to the wall and it would add more life to it! Oh well, I guess. At least the saving grace here is knowing that not too many stores really have the opportunity to get cafés added to them at this point, so we shouldn’t be seeing many more examples of this :P

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
