Fall is a great time of the year to look over your menu, take some items off and replace them with new options featuring on-trend and seasonal flavors! If you're recently reworked your menu, you can simply create a separate, small seasonal menu to accompany your full menu. You could also try featuring a new menu item certain days of the week, promoting in-house as well as on social media. No matter how you choose to freshen up your food service menu for fall, our chefs have created some remarkable ideas here to get you started!
