3. Begin creating your menu. (See my menu pile for examples) You may choose any font and color. This is your project. Take pride in it and make it look colorful, nice, and readable. You must have the following items in your menu:
Put the name of your restaurant at the top. Ex. "El Restaurante de (Your Name)". If your name is not included in the name of the restaurant, then you must put your name somewhere on the menu.
Create a slogan for your restaurant. Ex. "Great food at great prices!"
