Involved in implementing a database for the restaurant
Computer Science
Stylie D’s Bistro is an up-and-coming restaurant in the city’s trendy area. Management has decided to try and streamline the meal preparation process by developing a database application to help in creating and maintaining their daily menus. A menu is created for and identified by a menu ID. It also has a particular date and a particular theme (e.g., “Fat Tuesday,” “Autumn Bounty,” etc.). Each menu is composed of dishes (menu items) and every menu must have at least one dish. Each dish has a name, category (e.g., Appetizer), and a description that can be used in printing the offerings for that day, as well as its type of cuisine (e.g., Cajun). In order to facilitate kitchen staff training, recipes are maintained for the dishes, each of which must have an associated recipe and only one recipe. Recipes contain a text description of the preparation process (as a whole), and each recipe is associated with a set of ingredients by recording the measure (e.g., ounces) and the amount of that measure to be used. Ingredients are recorded with a name and description.
