Three cheers for Ben Janssens. The owner of SignMinds specializes in designing and fabricating eye-catching signage, including several food-and-drink marquees that light up the Twin Cities streetscape. Our favorite? The aluminum-and-neon doozy that heralds Thom Pham's Wondrous Azian Kitchen in downtown Minneapolis. "They wanted that old-style chow mein Chinese restaurant feel," explained Janssens. Mission accomplished.
