1. Review of Current Menu Items

The team reviewed the feedback on the current menu. Several items were flagged for potential removal due to low sales.

The Spicy Chicken Sandwich and Grilled Salmon will be phased out by the end of the month.

2. Introduction of New Seasonal Items

Chef Maria presented ideas for new seasonal menu items.

It was agreed to add a winter-themed vegetable stew and a mushroom risotto as new vegetarian options for the winter season.

3. Pricing Adjustments

Operations Manager John H. presented a report on food costs.

Prices for select items (e.g., the signature steak dish) will increase by 10% starting February 1, 2075, to account for rising ingredient costs.

4. Inventory and Supplier Updates

Purchasing Officer James L. provided an update on current supplier relationships and inventory levels.

A new supplier for organic vegetables will be trialed starting in March. The inventory of spices is running low and will be reordered.

5. Discussion of Customer Feedback

More emphasis will be placed on gluten-free options. A new gluten-free pizza crust will be tested in February.
