MENUS TO MEET EVERY DIET
Today’s customers have a multitude of needs and desires. Whether it’s GLP-1, gluten-free, vegan, kosher, halal, low salt/sugar, or eschewing alcohol…it’s critical to offer a variety of choices for everyone at the table.
- Vegan and vegetarian diners used to be rare, but numbers have increased, especially for those that aren’t strict and just focus on plant-based ingredients. Including meat-free options can increase customer traffic and repeat business/loyalty.
- Easy-to-substitute ingredients that can make recipes gluten-free include cauliflower rice, almond flour, lettuce wraps, rice noodles, and corn tortillas.
- GLP-1 dieters prioritize lean proteins and load up on fiber-rich, whole produce. Smaller portions and healthy fats like avocados are also key.
- Gen Z drinks less alcohol than any previous age group, making mocktails a profit opportunity. Thoughtful combinations with social media appeal layer sour, bitter, spicy, and savory notes with fruit juices, fresh herbs, edible flowers, and house-made shrubs.
