menu design
Food list arrangement
Menu design is the craft of organizing and presenting food and drink options for restaurants, cafés, and other establishments.
It encompasses layout, typography, item descriptions, and strategic placement to influence ordering patterns.
Good menu design balances aesthetics with functionality—guiding diners through options while reflecting the establishment's identity.
The new menu design boosted appetizer sales by twenty percent.
