This is a ceramic street plaque in Cáceres, located at the Plazuela de Publio Hurtado (a small square inside the old town).
Language: Spanish.
Style: Hand-painted azulejos (ceramic tiles), a tradition with deep roots in Andalusí (Moorish) and later Renaissance Spain.
Decorative elements: The framing uses Renaissance-inspired motifs: cherubs/nude figures in blue and white, surrounded by vegetal scrolls in blue and ochre tones. This kind of decoration became common in the 19th and early 20th centuries when cities renewed their signage with ceramic plaques.
Function: It’s not medieval but part of Cáceres’ heritage preservation efforts to beautify the historic center with artisanal signage that blends well with the monumental setting.

The language on the sign is Spanish. With a French loanword used as the restaurant’s name.
"Restaurante-Tapería" means Restaurant and Tapas Bar.
The word "Bouquet" is French, but here it is used as a brand name in Spanish context, often to evoke refinement (as in wine bouquet).
