Key Elements to Help You curate “The Menu”

1. Balance the Flavors and Textures

To appeal to different tastes, include a mix of savory, sweet, and spicy flavors and textures, such as crunchy and creamy.

2. Seasonal and Fresh Ingredients

Use ingredients that are in season for the best flavor and freshness.

3. Preparation and Cooking Time

Plan for a logical progression of courses, typically including appetizers, main courses, sides, and desserts. Choose dishes you can prep ahead of time.

4. Beverage Pairing

Offer a selection of beverages that pair well with the food, including non-alcoholic options.

5. Aesthetic Appeal

Think about how the dishes will look on the table and consider garnishes and plating.

Your guest will remember the presentation!
