The food MENU

Today, we see a mounting inclination in people to eat outside whether it is fine dine, fast food or enjoying at a restaurant bar.  The menu is a complement to the surrounding environment.

According the plan of the location a menu can be of various classes:

1. Table d’hôte (i.e. Table of the Host) or ‘menu du jour'

With limited choice and fixed number of courses, this menu has a fixed selling price for all dishes combined and is ready to serve in a set amount of time.

2. À la carte Menu (i.e. From the Card)  

This menu offers an extensive choice of items with each dish being priced separately. Some item may take longer times to serve.

3. A menu can also be combined with a mix of dishes served at a fixed price while other priced individually.

4. Tasting Menu ( usually 6-10 courses)

The chef may give the guests the opportunity to taste a sample of the meal. This menu may also be accompanied with selection of wines.

5. Breakfast Menu or afternoon tea menu

6. Airline, Hospital, Rail Service Menu

A trolley and kiosk is an important must have.

7. Event Menu

TIP

A menu has to map the requirement of the audience that you will be serving. The choice to eat any food is a relation between health and eating and can be influenced culturally, religiously and ethically or medically, in case of allergies. You may not want to forget that people are vegetarian and that the menu item may have seasonal items or ingredients that may not be readily available locally.
