Today in Letter Grades

Hillary Dixler Canavan is Eater's restaurant editor and the author of the publication's debut book, Eater: 100 Essential Restaurant Recipes From the Authority on Where to Eat and Why It Matters (Abrams, September 2023). Her work focuses on dining trends and the people changing the industry — and scouting the next hot restaurant you need to try on Eater's annual Best New Restaurant list.

A company called Grade A Sign is offering restaurants the chance to display their DOH grade and ads at the same time. The signs are illuminated, and feature digital ad space below the letter grade to entice customers to buy all kinds of things. The article notes that New York City's Gallery Bar is now using a Grade A Sign. [BB]
