Resources: Menu Trends

Asian cuisine is no longer just for takeout. Nowadays, it’s one of the “big three” ethnic cuisines, next to Mexican and Italian. And we’re not just talking Chinese food—Thai, Japanese, Indian, Vietnamese and Korean concepts are all seeing a significant increase in sales. With Millennials now outnumbering Baby Boomers, culinary thrill-seeking has become a trend. Bold, spicy, adventurous flavors are on the rise, and customers are moving out of their comfort zones to explore more culturally diverse foods. The Fast Casual Foodservice industry has taken particular advantage of the shift, using Asian as a base for tantalizing flavor mash-ups.
