Menu and kitchen
Menus, recipes, the prep list and the kitchen’s wall screen.
How Menu and kitchen works
The ideas behind menus, the recipe book, the prep list, waste and the wall screen, where each lives on the web and the iPhone, and who can do what.Web and iPhoneAdd to the prep list
Put one thing, or a whole list at once, on the kitchen’s prep list from the web or the iPhone, with how much, by when and who it is for.Web and iPhoneTick off the prep list
Start a prep item, work a recipe one stage at a time, let it wait, and mark it done, on the iPhone or the web.Web and iPhonePut the prep list in order
Choose between the order Yes Chef suggests and your kitchen’s own, and move rows up and down on the web or the iPhone.Web and iPhoneSet up regular prep
Have something put on the prep list by itself on the same days every week, and change, move or skip one of its days.WebRecord waste
Record what went in the bin and why: tap dishes on the iPhone during service, or write one entry out in full on the phone or the web.Web and iPhoneRead and correct the waste log
See what was thrown away over a day or a few weeks, by reason and by item, and correct or void an entry that is wrong.Web and iPhoneChange the waste reasons
Rename, reorder, add or take off the reasons your team picks from when they record waste at a location.WebAdd a menu, its categories and its items
Build a menu in Yes Chef: make the menu, add its categories, then add each dish with its price.Web and iPhoneSwitch a menu on or off
Keep several menus at one location, choose which are in use, and rename, copy or delete a menu.Web and iPhoneChange or archive a menu item
Change a dish’s price, name or category, take a dish off the menu, and do the same for a category.Web and iPhoneRecord allergens
Record the allergens in a dish and in a recipe, which words Yes Chef recognises, and where what you record is shown.WebAdd a recipe
Write a recipe into the book as stages, with the minutes each takes and how long it then looks after itself, so the prep list can be worked a stage at a time.WebImport recipes from a file
Turn a PDF or photos of your recipe sheets into recipes in the book, checking what was read before anything is saved.WebSet up a kitchen wall screen
Put the prep list, the day’s checks, open tasks and who is on shift on a TV or an iPad in the kitchen, with no sign-in on the screen.WebDesign a printed menu
Lay one of your menus out for paper or a screen: pick a style, adjust it, and export it as a PDF, an image or straight to a printer.WebStart a printed menu from your current menu
Hand Yes Chef the menu you print today as a PDF, a Word file or a photo, and get a design laid out to match, and a menu in the app if you have none.Web
