Fictitious logo for a French Restaurant

I designed this just for fun. What do you think?

Seems like yet another one of these "Oh man I just realized these two objects combine very easily to make a clever icon. Now, all I need to do is adjust the brand name according to the icon."

But I suppose it will do for stocklogos.

Yes, that's exactly how it happened.

I was about to agree with Anders but this is slightly more creative than your usual " Fuzzy Mango" or "Ice Claw" type of logo. It is a little tongue in cheek, which helps set it apart, but I don't know if you want that for a snooty, snobby French cuisine type of place. I also don't know if a French restaurant, assuming it's your typical type of affair, would be advertising on hats, t-shirts and smart cars.

I'd refine that logo to give it more of a " 400.00$ bottle of champagne" type of feel.

True, a real french restaurant would not go with a fast food type of logo.

+1 to Leaky Penny.

Without my sense of direction, I don't know where I'd be.

The term 'frog' is quite a derogatory term used by the english to describe the french, I am not sure how your average frenchman would feel about this.

Maybe it would suit a pet shop specialising in reptiles / amphibians better.

Nice idea though.

1st of all its a verrry creative & cleaver idea, Frog paw + Crown blend to visualize FROG KING. But some how its not going for me, it reminds me a chopped paw of FROG KING . Rather I would have proffered a full body stylish French Frog.

kinda...

Thanks!

I'm digging it, Ivan - nicely done. But agree it should be a different product. Keep the name - but apply it to a different product or service.

Also kerning... FROG KING is all over the place.

Hey Art, you didn't look my message at your logo topic... I was visiting Miami last week!
I visited Miami Beach (I prefer Copacabana eh eh) and ate shrimps and crabs.

at first glance of the smaller photos it looks like a pot leaf. just my take.

i see french food as more elegant thin, swirly, intricate.

BUT- as a logo representing something else it is nice!
