Nice site, real fresh looking

Like the template use, home page differs from the rest.

nice job.

Nice site, I really like it! A few details though, on which you may or may not agree:
1. I wonder if the different fonts work well together, maybe you should stick to one
2. The background pic on the pages may be a bit too heavy, the text on top is a bit hard to read.

Leigh:
Also, on some of the pages, the footer doesn't reach all the way to the bottom of the browser window. There is a white gap at the bottom of varying height, depending on the page content.

I totally understand what you're saying. However, I think one font is too sterile for this site. That works for hi-tech but not for selling the experience of flavorful food. The "look and feel" description I got from the clients during the planning phase included: vibrant, not-corporate, colorful, warm and interesting.

I had several discussions with the clients about both the background and fonts. I at least got the font number down to three. They wanted almost everything in a different font and different color! The Provisions banner font is part of their branding and is on all their printed material. It's absolutely important to use that font as a gif. Then there's one font for headings and one for body text. The different font sizes are the results of using lots of headings for semantic markup.
