NJ Restaurant Menu Question

LOL

"now you see why we never order desset - there is no room. course i would love to know how rosie and lowell manage 3 desserts between them and stay so thin. genetics i guess"

Rosie goes on the treadmill daily and to yoga class 3-4 times a week. Lowell goes to the gym when he is not working. We also go on hikes when time permits in addition to the other exercise. Breakfast is a half piece of dry toast. Lunch is yogurt and fruit. It is a constant struggle to maintain more exercise than the calories that we eat.  : )

O.K. I've got a week before I have to finish my menu and think I'm going to leave well enough alone. I'll still include the starch and veg but offer sides such a augratin potatoes, creamed spinach, etc at a $3-$4 tariff.

The only other option that I'm still weighing is I might offer the entree and give the customer a choice.

Example: Shrimp & Scallops Creole 17/19(with rice)

5 days to go.

so you would offer the protein and a veg with the starch for a bit more? do i have that concept right?

ok- i'd go for that.

i know several restaurants where you can order a la carte or 5 course and the price is reflected on the menu as:

roast duck breast with duck leg confit, sweet potato spaetzle and grilled vegetables 29/45

the 45 would include soup, appetizer, salad, entree, dessert and regular coffee.

A few places here in Chicago use the choice idea. For about $12-15 you just get the entree, for a few dollars more it is a meal package of some type ranging from veg. and starch to a compleate mealk. Depending on the place.
