premenu

A premenu is a preliminary list of dishes offered by a restaurant before the main menu is presented. It serves several purposes in the dining experience. Firstly, it allows customers to make informed decisions about their meal by providing a glimpse into the restaurant's offerings. Secondly, it can help manage customer expectations, as the premenu often includes a selection of dishes that are not available on the main menu. Thirdly, it can be a marketing tool, showcasing the restaurant's signature dishes or seasonal specials.

The premenu is typically presented before the main menu, often on a separate card or screen. It may include a variety of dishes, such as appetizers, main courses, desserts, and beverages. The selection can be curated to highlight the restaurant's unique selling points, such as a specific cuisine, cooking technique, or ingredient.

In some cases, the premenu may include prices, while in others, it may be a list of dish names without prices. The purpose of the premenu can vary depending on the restaurant's goals and the dining experience they wish to create. Some restaurants may use the premenu to encourage customers to try new dishes, while others may use it to create a sense of anticipation and excitement.
