New Theme: MyCuisine

MyCuisine is a small-business theme made with Restaurants in mind. That being said, the theme can easily be  adapted for any business that desires a similar aesthetic. The theme’s vintage, Tuscan appearances gives the design a warm and classy vibe that is sure to impress your visitors. The theme also comes with some unique features, such as the Location Page, Menu Section and Testimonials Post Type. For a closer look, be sure to check out the Live Demo as well as the Features Page.

MyCuisine Features

Five Unique Colorschemes – MyCuisine comes in 5 colors. If the default Brown version doesn’t suit you, then try out the Green, Blue, Black or Red variations.

Menu Page Template – The Menu Page Template gives you an easy way to organize your dishes. Here you can display a list of posts organized into different sections (categories), and even include a unique price for each. Even though the theme was created with Restaurants in mind, this “menu” page could be used to display any number of products.

Location Page Template – The Location page makes it easy for your visitors to find your store. One of the most likely reasons that a visitor would browse your website is to figure out where you are located, when you are open, and how to contact you. The location page hits each of these marks, giving your potential customer all of the basic information he/she is looking for in one convenient place.

As always, I hope you enjoy the theme. Let us know what you think in the comments!

    Nick,

    As usual the theme looks great! Job Well done!

    One thing I noticed though is that I’m able to scroll horizontally, because of the right side of the menu bar.
    It’s width is set at 2000px.

    Not sure if it’s just my browser (firefox 3.6.16) just letting you know though.

    Other than that looks awesome!

      That issue is even worse here on Safari/Mac on a large monitor with the browser-window quite wide. Just scrolling down makes the page shit to the left and hide half of the content. Only way to get back is to refresh or load another page from whats left of the menu. Clearly a bug.

    • Nick says:

      Strange, it works fine for me in Firefox. Are you on a Mac as well?

      • kraymer says:

        Hi Nick,

        Yeah, I’m using a mac.

        there’s no horizontal scroll bar, but scrolling left to right on my mouse pad allows horizontal scrolling.

        It probably works fine on most PC’s Just wanted to let you know.

      • Jarno W says:

        Don’t see a horizontal scroll, but the wide sidebar is there. Just try to scroll the page to the right with your left mouse button down.

        PC/latest Chrome

      • Ulf says:

        Would be nice if this bug got fixed. Makes the site feel far less professional when you all of a sudden accidentally scroll off into nothingness.

        For users with a magic mouse or something similar it’s hard to avoid.

    • Scotty says:

      I too am still seeing this problem. I would love to convert our site over to this but I am worried about this problem and what seems to be lack of concern from the theme builders. I am on 21″ iMac running Safari Version 5.0.4 (6533.20.27). Though I don’t see a scroll bar, all I have to do it click and hold my left mouse button (as to highlight text) and drag tot he right. Here is a screenshot:

      Please fix this so I can use this beautiful theme!

        Hi Nick, the themes looks stunning but i see the same “bug” that the guys up here say. Im using a mac and on firefox. Any chance to get it fixed? Thanks a lot. Josh

    Any new personal blog themes coming up? I’m missing those a bit :-(

  4. AJ says:

    Amazing work! Another awesome theme for the gallery. Price is going to have to go up soon ;)

  5. Hans says:

    Hi Nick,

    what about a red colorscheme for chinese restaurants like the Peking Ente in Berlin? We will soon rebuild our site.

    Greetings Hans

  6. Andre says:

    Great, You are slightly breaking up worn out stlyes and keep small details that dont change on each step, you bring new themes. Now we can see sharper and thinner lines, more hardened and business stylish.
    I like this.
    Still the old beautyful elegance

  7. Dave says:

    Excellent. Only thing id suggest is to have the text in the top pull down menu (overlapping the Slide Show) that text is a bit harder to see, light text on light background, perhaps the other colour choices make the text stand out a bit more. Otherwise super design

  8. Matthew says:

    DAMN, this is a SEXY one bro. Great work Nick, can’t wait for the Review theme to be dropping shortly too!

  9. Really nice Nick,

    If I get more recipes on my site, I may make a separate sub-domain and use this one.

  10. Ahmad says:

    love the design looks very pretty

  11. Surey says:

    Wow! That’s delicious theme for food business. Work has been done greatly.

    Congrats elegantthemes! ;-)

  12. I’m glad to see something a little different out of ET! I can see this working for all sorts of small businesses.

  13. Chirag says:

    hi nick,

    Amazing job again.

    Was wondering if there are any plans for developing a landing page?

    I am looking into launching some information products in near future and would like to use an elegant themes theme for it as they are the best.

    Looking forward to hear from your side.

    Regards

    Chirag

  17. Looks very good and fresh. Proud to be member.

    Just two queries, on MENU, all the prises are in GREEN.

    Can it be red and green both. Like, in India, Green means Vegetarian and Red mean Non-Vegetarian?

    Also Can the $ [dollar] sign be removed to have another currency signs?

  21. Hello blogger. I like your blog about New Theme: MyCuisine-
    Elegant Themes Blog.

    I was wondering, i am planning to make a blog for myself. I want to use wordpress like you. Where did you get your template? If you post your answer here below,then i will read this in the next few day’s.

    Thanks Koolzuursneeuwblusser

  22. Josh says:

    Do you think you can make a theme for displaying software? Slider and all, but some kind of technical background image?

  23. LovesMoose says:

    Holy roma tomatoes, Nick!! Gorgeous theme, my goodness. Although it was specifically designed for the food/restaurant industry, your theme has wide appeal. One question, though: Can the speed of the rotating header be controlled? Sorry if I missed feedback on this above.

    Cheers!

  24. As usual your theme looks great! Nice Job.

  25. Deep Titanic says:

  29. Yan says:

    Could you make a theme for the travel agency? Tks

  30. Great theme :)

    Clean and simple.

  31. Lawrence says:

    Great theme Nick! Classy and elegant. Thanks!

  32. Chandana says:

    Cool themes with built in SEO functionality.

  33. Raymond says:

    I tested this theme for someone who’s a member here and is trying to use it on their site. But on their PC, the theme is stretching too far to the right and there is no scroll bar to bring it back. I tested it on my PC and it’s doing the same thing on mine. I decided to not buy a membership based on this and other issues. The themes just have too many bug problems.

  34. Raymond says:

    Hey Nick. I went through my friend’s theme files and found the problem with the My Cuisine theme width extending too far to the right (she said she tried your forums and didn’t get any help): in the style.css under ***main lay-out info***, the #menu-right width is set to 2000px and should be 20px. I set hers to 23px for her screen’s resolution. Great theme by-the-way. That fixed the problem and the theme no-longer extends over to the right. I almost broke-down and thought to buy a membership (but I won’t cuz I’m still hesitant after my friend’s experience in your forums).Your forum team needs to do better…

  35. Cass says:

    Great! I love it. But how do I incorporate ecommerce? or can I?

  36. Tommy says:

    Is it possible to change (or erase) the
    “MON-FRI (hours of operation)”
    and
    “SAT-SUN (hours of operation)”?

  37. I cannot get the Feature Slider Images to display correctly. I assume you would use the Featured Image in the post or page you wish to show up on the home page. When I select an image it uses the cropped version of the image 430×465 instead of the 1400×465 size image I am intending to use, even though I am selecting full size image. Anyone have an idea?

  38. richard says:

    can you use this theme for multiple restaurants? I saw a post which said you could by setting pages and categories, but I do not understand how it would work since whatever categories are set in the epanel will show up on any page with the menu template? Thanks, Richard

  39. Richard Dill says:

    This theme would just fit for any restaurant’s blog. I like the color because it shows elegance. What about creating another one? And by the way, nice tagline.

  40. amanda says:

    I love the theme, but can’t get it to do anything correctly!
    I can’t get my tagline to appear, or even my site name!
    help!

  42. I love this theme very much and we are using this theme for our business! Thanks!

  43. Sarah says:

    For those who are still concerned about the menu bar horizontal scroll bug, I figured out how to fix it. Go to the Appearance->Editor in the admin panel, find #page-top and add “overflow:hidden;” (without quotes) to the code. For those who are not css savvy, that part of the code should now read:

    #page-top { background: url(images/top-bg.png) repeat-x; position: relative; overflow:hidden;}

    NOTE: I am using a MAC and only checked it with firefox, chrome and safari.

    Good luck!

  44. ve may bay says:

    love the design looks very pretty

  45. to fix the problem with over scrolling to the right, leave the “#menu-right” set as 2000px width – this is set like this so it will adapt and fill all screen size. whoever said to put this at 20px is completely wrong.

    and then add “overflow:hidden;” to the “#page-top”. to find the correct places to insert just use find on your browser (Ctrl + F on PC for example). works perfectly on all browsers on PC and Mac, and on iPad etc.

  46. Dennis says:

    …regarding my previus post…Raymond’s post to change #menu-right width from 2000px to 20px works for us and is the only suggestion that does!

  47. iforsikring says:

    That is a really nice theme. I do however have a bit troubles with the images on the featured slider. But I am quite sure that will I will be able to manage and tweak it.

    Oh another thing. Are you able to change the location zoom ?
