Menu Card for 4 Star Hotel

Hotel Trinity is a 4* city centre hotel, part of the Trinity Hotel chain, located in the United Kingdom (within your locality). Your task is to create and design a fixed price Christmas Party menu for Hotel Trinity (fictional hotel), that they can offer over the Christmas period. You must offer drinks packages on the menu. The menu will need to be designed on an A4 page format (Word / PowerPoint / Other). This can be a singular page, or 2 pages (as this could be printed back to back)

You should consider: • The look of the menu (layout, headings, font, colours and a logo created by you) • Number of courses, the dishes and cuisine • Seasonality of ingredients used • Theme, consider optional add ons such as entertainment or live music. • A suitable price-point, that reflects the location and offering and is competitive with local businesses. Consider weekdays vs weekends. • What information is needed on a menu (Allergens statement, vegetarian / vegan symbol etc. menu legend). Some of these are legal requirements whilst others are recommended / optional. • Availability – when is the menu available? Is a deposit or pre order required? • Offers / discounts to encourage more bookings • Beverages – be sure to state the measurements along with descriptive text that helps to describe and sell the items. Consider drinks packages you could offer. • Spelling and grammar – You are advertising the Hotel Trinity brand with this menu. Ensure you have accurate spelling throughout. • Menu planning fundamentals. Have you included descriptive language to help sell your menu items? Have you considered the local element? It is entirely up to you what menu items you include. However, you should consider the occasion and the location of the hotel, making sure you incorporate elements of this in to your menu. You should also choose dishes that would suitably represent a 4* hotel restaurant.

You will also be required to supply a reference list on a separate page, detailing the sources that you have used to create your menu. This could include references for images used, menu inspiration, theories you have studied and researched and so on. Your list must conform to UWTSD’s Harvard Referencing Guide, a copy of which can be found on Moodle, under the Module Information tile. There is no requirement to provided in-text citations for this task, as we need to see the menu as a final product.
