The menu is the first thing that a restaurant visitor sees after he sits down at a table. A beautiful and well-designed menu will add flattering reviews to your establishment.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a format. A long and narrow notebook, brochure, or solid book that looks like an old one. The cover plays a big role.
But the main thing, of course, is what is inside. Naturally, no one is going to eat the menu, and in addition to a beautiful picture book, there should be, in fact, decent quality dishes, but a good menu never hurts.
Step 2
What is important is the interior design, original solutions, and a convenient and understandable structure.
The menu shouldn't look pale, but it shouldn't be too dazzling either.
It would be nice if each dish (or at least the most expensive and exotic ones) was accompanied by short descriptions and illustrations in order to avoid unnecessary uncomfortable questions. Moreover, these descriptions and illustrations themselves should not be arranged too strictly in the form of an even list, especially for images. They can be made as a background, as a nice addition to the text, but not as a reference column like an encyclopedic one. This freedom gives originality and is pleasing to the eye.
Step 3
The structure of the menu is also important. First of all, logic. Obviously, it would be very strange to have desserts or drinks on the front page. Dishes should be listed on the menu in the order of their intended use. By the way, about drinks. Of course, they are usually prescribed in a separate block, like everything else, and this is completely normal, but you can add light, unobtrusive recommendations that we recommend such and such wine to such and such a dish, for example. You can mark this with a link, or you can use a small image of the corresponding bottle of wine on the side of the main course.
Step 4
In a word, nothing should limit and shackle you too much. There are some logical, generally accepted canons that are worth adhering to, but your imagination and ingenuity play a decisive role. It is the author's findings and solutions that will distinguish the menu of your establishment from others.
