accent is good!
Do you speak Italian too?

Nevermind... Here is a menu I did:

Note the prices are all in reverse panels. I do this so I can provide a large sheet of various prices in these same size panels. this allows client to maintain price changes for quite some time, without coming to see me.

I like your idea of the prices this way...


By the way..... I think that Zazzess is really a big fat bald guy just using that avitar to get help..........


Hope you know I'm kidding....... I enjoy reading the posts too......

i have done quite a few menu boards, mostly at theme parks so the style changed up quite a bit and had to stick to a certain format while being guided by marketing and restaurant specific designers (interior, environmental and graphic) I see a lot of help, but not enough questions.. like:

--- What is "cantine style"? Do you mean "bistro"? then what style, yeah I'm thinking French but it if not, it would help to know...
--- In order to pick a "correct" legible typeface, (and there are plenty of them in many styles) I think you should look at the interior, branding/logo, architecture... anything that will compliment the area and identity.
--- I think adding a field color to the copy adds nothing and giving the layout less balance, complicating the layout.
--- I think a menu should add to the branding, and be an extension of the interior architecure.
---Always... I mean always look at the layout with a scale person in place or better yet, placed in a photo rendering to the correct scale to see how the size works, to me the original size sounded large, but not knowing where it was placed, how high, the surrounding environment, a lot of the suggestions may not be of any help without knowing that additional information.

I was bored so i played with it after thinking about it... then the format changed... and the client went with something.
