We have here an amazing photo of the first menu from the original Mandarin on Polk street, where Cecilia scratched off, rewrote, and repriced her menu. There is a lot of thought needed for menu editing and you can get a glimpse of how that person is as a food business owner, so this is what I am going to talk about in this episode.
