Answer preview
One of the main types of menus is la carte menus. In this type of menu, the prices for each item are listed separately. The menu allows customers to choose specific items and can combine different items the way they want. Another type of menu is the cyclical menu that repeats its menu items over a given period. The menu items are rotated according to the week’s day, chef’s choice, or seasonal availability. Another menu type is the table d’hôte menus that offer one or more items that are served to guests at a single table, but each menu item has a different price. Another type of menu is the Du Jour menu that indicates the items offered in a day and can change daily depending on seasonal items’ availability. Another type of menu is the tourist menu that provides items that can attract the attention of tourists. Another type of menu is the California menus that give customers the freedom to order any menu item at any time of the day.
