The last menu I wanted to share was a cocktail menu from Bordinos. Not only is this a specialty menu, it is also a menu that shows the whole pricing method as opposed to the odd pricing method. To me, the whole pricing shows a crisp and more extravagant menu style. It is also in a more modern theme, black and white with the different categories clearly defined. Again, in my eyes this looks like a good restaurant just by looking at this clean and modern menu style they have.

One type of menu that is not too popular is an allergy menu. This menu attached to my post is for the Kona Cafe in the Polynesian resort at Walt Disney World. This is a specialty menu that is not needed for every visit, only the ones that do have allergies. Having an additional menu for those with allergies is nice because it saves space on the regular menu and also allows the person with allergies to have their own menu and they won't have to worry about digging through the menu to find something specific.

One type of menu is the kids menu. This was also mentioned in the reading but it is a very popular menu. Menus that are given to kids that allow them to not only choose their own meal but color or play certain games do much more than allow them to read a normal menu. Kids menus often help keep kids occupied while parents are able to look at their own menu and decide what they would like. Kids menus might also include various pictures of the plates of food offered which helps small children who might not be able to read decide what they want as well. My sister always loves getting the kids menus because they almost always have a tic-tac-toe section.
