branding & concepts

Initial planning is leaning towards three American-burger concepts: 
Concept 1, "Cars" - melding of cultures

A theme that melds two cultures by featuring the American muscle car era (and general fascination with cars) and Pitesti's automotive industry.  Visually, a car, a burger, and simple name "the American" in simply represented in a bold, iconic way. Menu may include car-themed names for burgers -- for example, "the Cadillac" kobe beef topped with caviar.

Concept 2, "City" - maybe Rte 66 style

Menu that ties to cities in the US -- New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, maybe even Santa Fe as a southwest destination with a "Low-rider" green chile cheeseburger.

Concept 3, Music - "Cover bands"

Menu that features categories of burgers R&B, Rock & Roll, Country, Jazz, Broadway. Not a Hard Rock Cafe -- important that we stay away from anything tied to their brand and trademarks.
