that was a brianfart after shopping,hauling,stocking,etc.
i did the menu late @ night & posted it before i revised it. the plates are $5.00 and i sold a buttload of them. i could easily go higher on everything but this is a reopening so i gave good deals & went volume sales.

Do Frito Pies get ordered without cheese?

Since it's at a motoX park, you might want to offer Monster energy drinks. It and Red Bull is the 2 most popular here it seems.
