These must have fallen out of style hard because I got a lot of them from thrift stores. Anyway, they have a good home in my kitchen and bathroom.

i remember, the food court at our local mart had a lovely mural of a painted garden, it was really cute
they’ve since then removed it to put a generic wood texture wallpaper and 3 TVs that blast right-wing propaganda and ads all day
Romanos macaroni grill vibes
Redditors: "what do you think of my Paela?"
All I want right now is some robust-ass art nerd to swoop in and tell us what this kind of art is actually called other than "90's clip art"
Global Village Coffeehouse
No way this isn't just three random words put together.
How is Mission School a succession? It looks totally different!

I’ve always hated this art style, but I can’t explain why.
It's that 2000s era corporate clip art style. I have too many bad associations with it.
It was quickly adopted as a corpo art style and overused to death.
See Alegria art for a more recent version of the same thing
The chef is clearly in peak creative flow after finishing up that joint
Ptthhhhhffffpt
Yeah, imma put a whole ass lobster on this........ and fuckin' snails! Fuck yeah
*chef’s spliff*
I don't recall this kind of style as a trend for restaurants, or for anything for that matter.
Also wtf isn't on that pizza?
Isn't that a paella?
Have you never had a garbage can pizza before? There was a place on the north side of Chicago, where if you wandered in shortly before closing, you could get a garbage can pizza, where they throw all the ingredients they're going to be tossing out at the end of the night onto your pizza. They only made it for regular customers, but it was a good deal since they charged regular price, but it was loaded with so much stuff.
Not really but sounds like a perfect snack for the end of a night out
It was usually the start of a night out. I was a young man in Chicago, and took advantage of it while i could.
No, he's picking up a slice with his right arm.
This style is peak 2000s era corporate clip art.
What, you don't put eggs, snails, an entire fish, and a whole lobster on your pizza?
I'm just glad they put the entire kebab with inedible skewer directly on it to save me time.
If you had never seen this before, would you assume it was AI art?
Well, the guy does have 5 well drawn fingers.
I'm mixed on it. For one, no reasonable person thinks a whole ass fish, lobster, carrots, etc. belong on what I assume is a pizza. On the other hand, he's lifting up a slice of the pizza and it seems coherent, with the slice missing below in the proper place and size with no artifacts.
It's like what would happen if AI gave a prompt to a human artist.
Is that what's happening? I thought he was ladling a huge ass pot of soup.
It's a giant pizza, and he is lifting a single slice up using one of those pie server things...
The center looks like soup, but there's definitely a chunk being removed, which doesn't make sense for soup. Maybe a different kind of pie than pizza, but idk.
No, i'd assume it was made by the guy who made all that clipart back in the day.
I miss gaudy old corporate art. So much better than sterile new corporate art.
(Actually maybe not “better” in every sense but at least they were trying to do something)
Ha ha. The food menu and chef clip art got used a lot!
I absolutely would suspect AI
