On a mild summer day in 1976, a table in a – based on the typeface presumably bourgeoise- Belgian restaurant was waiting for 2 guests from the Netherlands. Most certainly, they did not make reservations online as a corona safety measure, but simply because in the 70s it was chic to ‘have reservations’. Something about this ‘Dinner for two’ must have been memorable enough for the guests to keep the card. Were they a coupe on their honeymoon? Father and son on their first biking trip? Two bank robbers on their run through Europe? Time won’t tell.
