seasonal menu
Time-sensitive food list
A seasonal menu is a restaurant's offerings that change based on what's fresh and available at different times of year.
Spring menus might feature asparagus and lamb; fall menus highlight squash and game.
The approach emphasizes local sourcing and peak-quality ingredients: The chef updates the seasonal menu quarterly.
Seasonal menus signal culinary seriousness and farm-to-table values.
