Why Menu Engineering Matters
Ask yourself: Are you ignoring your profit powerhouses?
You might be starring your lowest-margin dog while your high-earning steak sits in the doghouse. Menu engineering isn’t fancy math—it’s common sense meets cold, hard cash. A strategically tweaked menu can mean:
- 15–25% lift in ticket averages
- Faster table turns (no more “menu confusion”)
- Fewer costly specials that flop
Let’s break it down—no jargon, promise.
The Talent-Show Judge of Your Menu
Think of your menu items as contestants under a disco ball. We hand out scores, point out who’s slaying, and kindly send the wallflowers packing.
🌟 Star, Puzzle, Plowhorse, Dog Classification
- Stars: Your chart-toppers—high profit, high popularity. Keep ‘em center stage.
- Puzzles: Profitable but under-loved. They need a promo spotlight (“$2 off Tuesdays?”).
- Plowhorses: Popular but slim margins. Consider price bumps or portion tweaks.
- Dogs: Low profit, low popularity. Time for an exit—or a complete makeover.
