New Bedford has a big history of Whaling back in the Day and so the Name and the sign with the Whale tail fit well in that regard, Here is a shot of the Restaurant, as you can see surrounded by cobblestone streets, We haven't checked it out yet but I would like t one day

I went with a Mainly MOno edit for the next shot as the color of the brick wall took away the focus onthe sign, What caught my eye here was initially the sign, and then the contrast with the lower sign for the Fibre Optic centre in contrast with the Beef sign.
