Kids' menus
Michael Godfrey, head chef at the Guinness Brewery in London, also shares his tips on kids' menus.
He says:
This is a great way to get the whole family into a restaurant and increase revenue at the same time.
Keep children's menus simple. Many children like to read the menu themselves and will shy away from things they don't recognise so don't make the food too over the top.
Most children, unfortunately, like old favourites such as chicken nuggets, fish fingers, pizza, burgers and plenty of chips.
To entertain my son and his friends, I use a shaped cookie cutter to make sandwiches a little more appealing. You could try this with home-made beef burgers.
Always try to consider the opinion of the child and ask them what they would like - after all they are the ones eating it!
