Menu Design

Menu Creation
Our Student Run Restaurant needs a menu!

You must have 4 sections to your menu.

• Appetizers or Soups
• Salads
• Entres or Main Courses
• Desserts

Create 2 or 3 dishes for each menu section.

You must describe your dishes in ways that will be appetizing and make people to order this dish.
Think about it: Would you rather choose "Fried chicken strips with a dipping sauce"? Or would you prefer "Chicken strips with a seasoned batter fried to a crispy golden brown served with a healthy portion of tangy blue cheese dressing"?

WE WILL ADD LOGOS TO THE MENU LATER.
