Our team of experts have created hundreds of menus and menu items for independent and multi-unit concepts, understanding that menu creation is a balancing act where items must be tempting, driving guest loyalty, and profitable.
We begin with a backbone of menu making, featuring categories and approximate item counts. We work closely with the owner and then enter development mode, working in sync with a chef in the kitchen with appropriate raw materials to create menu selections that deliver the “wow” in flavor and visual appeal while considering targeted food cost, profit contribution and the potential for consistent execution.
Our area of expertise includes the following:
Menu Research & Development | Recipe Documentation (Prep Recipes and Plate Assembly Recipes) | Nutritional Analysis & Menu Calorie Labeling (separate charges involved) | Vendor Selection | Raw Material Recommendations | Menu Engineering/Optimization | Menu Design | Menu Costs/Pricing | Product Mix Projections | Plate-ware Selection | Glassware Selection | Take-out Packaging Recommendations | Small-wares Recommendations.
