Designing up a good menu design is not that easy as eating pasta and steak. Sometimes it will take for about 2 days to one week to come up a good one. As an artist myself it's a tough challenge for me on how to make the food more presentable, yummy and satisfying even just in matte printed paper only.
Chefs needs do the tasting, cleaning, choosing the appropriate plate to use and even calculating the time in serving the dishes to their guests from the kitchen all the way to the dining table are their main concerns.

Artists does almost the same thing too, in designing such menu for food like this we (artists) see to it that we have the right/good photos (from a good photographer of course) as our main ingredient, following and arranging grids, measurements and applying colors as a background must always be observed and needs to do the trial and error in printing and sometimes bring this to a panel discussions if needed before printing and give it away to the guests or to your target market.
For food artists / chefs its always the smell that comes first. And for the design artists, It's always the colors that matters.
