How to Ensure The New Menu Is a Success!

No wonder, chefs are always thinking about introducing new dishes in their menu several times throughout the year. Whether it's introducing seasonal produce or replacing dishes that are not taken so well by the diners or improvising with trendier options, changing and rotating the menu keeps diners excited and coming back for more. A good menu is at the heart of every restaurant. But, executing a new menu launch is no easy feat.

We ask experts on how to ensure the new menu launch is a success. From their experience in the industry operations, they are the best think tank to give significant guidelines.

At Bengaluru Marriott Whitefield, we recently launched a new menu for Alto Vino, the Italian fine dining restaurant at the property. With an intensified focus on understanding the taste and preferences of the guests and incorporating it in chef’s culinary repertoire, it required a planning and research of around eight months or so. It boasts of an experiment that our expat chef has been doing with his guests to push boundaries and get the flavours and textures right to meet the taste of our audience.
