What is a menu modifier? (Add-ons and options)
Modifier groups
Options are kept in groups, like "Spice level" (mild, medium, hot) or "Extras" (cheese, egg). One group can be used on many dishes.
Required or optional
A required group must be answered, like choosing a base for a pizza. An optional group, like extras, can be skipped. Some groups allow more than one choice.
Why it helps
Modifiers keep your menu short: one "Masala Dosa" with options instead of ten separate dishes, and the extra charges are never missed on the bill.
