Menu Creation & Engineering

Costed menus and accurate recipes are essential for effective food service management, helping assess profitability and improve operations. By outlining food costs, labour, and overhead, operators ensure each dish contributes to earnings. Analysing menu performance with costed menus allows for a review of item sales, profitability, and customer preferences. This approach boosts profits and customer satisfaction, supporting a sustainable operation.
