Incorrect, ; my friend. ; This one is a bit devious. ;
 
Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

I did a little research and my first guess would have been Red's but apparently thats not right.

How about Columbia Harbor House?
 
Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

neither are correct. ; katie is correct with respect to a dining establishment, however. ; expand your view of the world.
 
Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

Interesting...it is actually a misspelling of a classic English maxim (in latin), meaning "After so many shipwrecks, we reach a port". ; The true latin spelling of the center word is 'Naufragia', meaning shipwreck.

This was the official motto of a powerful English nobleman, known as the Earl of Sandwich.

Just thought that interesting sidenote might be enlightening.

Now, where could this coat of arms be?
 
Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

I guess I'll go out on a limb and guess Earl of Sandwich, at Marketplace. ; It is John Montagu's coat of arms, and is on their menu board!

Meatballs for everyone, ; compliments of justin. ; Well played. ;
 
Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

Well, that would do it. ; I figured Latin and tried an online translator. ; It got "after so many naueragia to harbour." ; It just couldn't get that middle word. Way to go.

Re: Coat of Arms (WAI)

Well I AM an Englishman, after all...best that I recognize the coat of arms from a countryman of status. ; ;)
