It's from 2015, less than 10 years ago. Yes, time flies, and the
false "modernity" sense flies with it.

We should also be different from all the rest of fashion-driven world.
There's nothing wrong with the logo, it's a little puzzle in itself,

P.S. I agree with Philip that starting this kind of discussions from

quickly makes the discussion fruitless. We should first discuss the
content, not the form and/or order of items on menus etc.
