How I PROMTED ChatGPT to create me a Golf Club menu for a Golf Course Clubhouse and Dining Room.
In this first prompt, I lay the groundwork for the project by giving ChatGPT context and explaining our ROLE. For each prompt, I am specific to ask not to start yet, and do you understand so far?
CHEF: I am the chef at a local golf club in Oakville, Canada. Our membership consists primarily of retired folks of both genders. Although they have plenty of money, they tend to like traditional food, especially for breakfast. I will ask you to create a menu for the clubhouse for this golf course, but I have a few more instructions first. Do you understand so far? The clubhouse has a dining room and outdoor patio for more formal meals and a pub room that features a bar and TV screens. I will need two separate golf club menus that reflect those settings. The dining room is only open from 4 pm to 9pm nightly and only has a dinner menu. However the patio can receive orders from either menu when available. The pub is open for breakfast at 8 am and stays open to 10 pm nightly. don’t start yet. do you understand so far?
CHATGPT: I understand your instructions so far. You’re looking for two separate menus tailored to the settings and operational times of the dining areas at a golf club in Oakville, Canada. One menu is for the dining room, which is open for dinner from 4 pm to 9 pm, and the other is for the pub room, which serves breakfast starting at 8 am and remains open until 10 pm. The patio can serve items from either menu when available. Please go ahead with any further instructions or details you’d like to include.
In this next PROMPT, I am providing more CONTEXT and ACTION about the establishment and the assignment.
CHEF: The dining room dinner menu will need 2 salads, 4 appetizers, and 8 entree options. The entrees should include a mix of beef, chicken, salmon, pasta dishes, and a vegetarian option. They will all be served with a slightly higher degree of plate presentation that emulates an upscale casual dining room. The dinner menu would have a check average of about $50 to $75, including alcohol, tax and tip. The pub menu includes a breakfast menu served until 1:00 pm and should have breakfast combos mixed with lighter fruit, oatmeal and bagel sandwich options. Please include tea, coffee, cappuccino and latte options too. The Pub menu will include 4 sandwich or wrap options, (halibut) fish and chips, 2 beef burgers, 1 grilled chicken burger and 1 vegan burger, a nacho platter, chicken wings, chicken fingers, 1 Asian-inspired bowl, 1 Mexican-inspired bowl, 1 philly-steak sandwich, 1 steak meal, 1 fish taco, 1 Chinese style stir fry dish. We also need 2 salad options that can be combined with any of the sandwiches or burgers. Otherwise, all the sandwiches and burgers will be served with house-made french fries. We will also serve one or two specials and one or two soups per day. The soups can be substituted for fries or salad on any combo, so please note that in the menu descriptions. The pub menu would result in a check average of about $25 to $40, including alcohol, tax, and tip.. Don’t start yet, but do you understand so far? Respond, yes, if so.
CHATGPT: Yes, I understand.
CHEF: As far as good food costs for the Golf club go, I would like to use as many inventory items as I could in multiple menu items to help keep inventory items low and fresh. These inventory items can be used across either menu. For example, a lunch grilled chicken burger can use the same chicken breast as a chicken pasta dish on the dinner menu. Don’t start, but do you understand the concept of trying to keep food costs as low as possible?
CHTAGPT: Yes, I understand the concept of optimizing food costs by utilizing the same inventory items across multiple dishes on both menus, to keep inventory levels low and ensure ingredient freshness.
CHEF: Okay, finally, I will need full menu descriptions and suggested menu prices for each item. Group the menu items into logical sections, but keep the menus entirely separate. Start with the pub menu and pause for my input and further instructions on the dining room menu.
CHATGPT: Let’s start with the Pub Menu, considering the operational hours, diverse offerings from breakfast to dinner, and the intention to utilize ingredients across multiple dishes for efficiency and freshness.
