KENYA · GUIDE 0542 · EDITION 4.2
Restaurant menu design in Kenya
Lay out an accurate menu in agreed print and digital formats.
A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE
Fictional menu-layout MEN-42 creates a two-page A4 café menu with eighteen approved items in breakfast, lunch and drinks sections. Each item has one price and an owner-supplied portion description. Output is an editable source, print PDF and a readable digital PDF. Example entry: 'Tea — one cup — [approved KSh price]'. Prices and ingredient wording are client facts, not invented nutritional advice. Photography, printing, new copywriting and price-setting are excluded.
Who is the first customer?
Restaurants and takeaway kitchens.
