Jade

Jade runs 2 separate menus rather than one long list.

The à la carte spreads across 10 sections, soup to dessert; the dim sum brunch is a document of its own, printed as a fixed spread rather than priced dish by dish, and it runs to 39 dishes on its own.

The menu runs a 12-code allergen key down every page, and a single green or red mark for vegetarian or not. It is thorough enough that a guest with a restriction can read the table rather than explain anything to anyone.

One section near the back of the à la carte is priced well above the rest — 6 dishes the kitchen sets apart rather than filing them under a dish type the way it files every other section.
