The menu must then be costed according to realistic ingredient prices and
portions sizes and ingredient yields. The ingredients within each recipe must
be costed to determine the cost per serve of every menu item on the menu.
This must then be entered into a menu analysis template (section 2 of this
assignment) that the trainer will issue to the student. The menu once
entered into the menu analysis spreadsheet must fall at 30% food cost
percentage or below.
The menu must be presentable to industry standard in a word document and
should use current industry trends in menu design.
Once the costings of the menu are entered into the menu analysis
spreadsheet students must determine the average cost per customer of the
entire 3 courses, then must determine the selling price of the function as
price per head. The price per head must take into account that the food cost
percentage at 30% or below.

2. 2 menu analysis’s must be submitted for each menu. An example of the menu
analysis template for the A La Carte menu is provided on the next page. The
trainer must provide students with all 3 templates for their food costings. Once
the student has completed each menu analysis within the excel spreadsheet all 3
must be handed into the trainer with each menu. Attach each of these to this
assessment and all 3 must fall below 30% food cost percentage
(Menu analysis template example for the A La Carte menu is provided on the next page)
The menu analysis sheet comprises of a few different terms as headings for each financial
performance indicator. The definitions for each term of each heading are below:
Menu mix %: Determines the popularity of a dish over a certain time period (can also be
termed as the ‘popularity index’). It is determined by the ‘amount sold’ divided by the ‘total
dishes sold’ then multiplied by 100.
Amount sold: Total amount of each dish sold for a certain time period.
Food cost %: Food cost percentage of an individual food item which is determined by the
‘food cost’ divided by the ‘sales prices’ then multiplied by 100.
Food cost: The cost per serve of each individual food item.
Sales price: The sales price per serve of each individual food item.
Menu cost: The total cost of an individual dish over a certain time period determined by the
‘food cost’ multiplied by the ‘amount sold’.
Menu revenue: The total sales of an individual dish over a certain time period determined
by the ‘sales price’ multiplied by the ‘amount sold’.
TOTAL food cost percentage: The total food cost percentage for the entire menu of a
certain time period. This is determined by the ‘menu cost’ divided by the ‘menu revenue’
then multiplied by 100. This will vary depending on the popularity of each menu item and
will be a key factor in determining the sales prices on your menu to ensure this figure is
below 30%.

3. Scenario: You are the head chef at a restaurant and the general manager has
provided you with a report that the food cost percentage for the month is 34%. He
has asked you to find ways to reduce this back to 30% as the restaurant did not
make any profit for the month. Use your menu analysis spreadsheet in the
previous exercise as a guide by changing figures around in order to lower the
TOTAL food cost percentage %. List below all the ways possible that you could
lower the monthly food cost percentage back to within the budget that the general
manager has set you and report this back to your trainer. Also describe how
customer feedback can play a role in determining an ongoing profitable menu
Answer-
Several ways to lower food cost percentages, for examples:
