Introduction

There are 3 websites selected for critique on the overall design. They are as follows:

    1. Le Turtle Website
      2. Le Turtle_opt.jpg

      This is probably a french restaurant deduced from the menu served. The intended audience seems unclear as there is limited information put up in the website such as the profile of the owners, nature of industry, relevant images etc. However from the instagram, one could then see pictures of customers from a diverse group across ages patronising at the restaurant. As pink is used as the colour of the homepage where it signifies romance, love and friendship, the nature of the website could be of a personal one rather than corporate. Hence, those who likes to make friends and build friendship would be comfortable to visit this website.

    2. Mean Sandwich
      3. Mean Sandwich_opt.jpg

      This is a hot-griddled sandwich shop situated at Seattle. The website makes use of the gaping open mouth image as a cursor which is also the animation of the late singer, the mouth of Freddie Mercury whom the couple as well as owners, Kevin and Alex Pemoulie were the fans of Freddie Mercury. Unlike Le Turtle, the first website that is critiqued earlier, Mean Sandwich has a lot more to offer. With the gaping open mouth image as cursor, it has already created a hilarious, relaxed and joyous effect on the audience visiting the website.

    3. SalazarLA.com
      4. Salazar-la_opt.jpg

      This is a Mexican restaurant, converted from an old Mazda Garage serving Northern Mexican-style flour tortillas and grilled meat. The owner is Billy Silverman and has Esdras Ochoa being the co-founder. It offers all-day dinning both indoor and outdoor, operating mostly from 11am till 10pm except Monday. Due to its open space, the dinners enjoy natural light surrounded by trees and potted plants, big and comfortable seating environment pampered with a nostalgic touch.
