Changing or Adding Permissions to Your Café Manager LoginCredentialsIf you are changing to a different campus, or if you need access to more than one campus, you’llneed to have your Café Manager login reset by your RMD or by cba-admin@cafebonappetit.com. Afteryour RMD or the CBA admin resets your account, you’ll need to repeat steps 1–7 in Section I.IV.Café SetupA. Provide info to your RMD:i. Café name as you want it to appear <strong>for</strong> your guestsii. Whether the new café is “dynamic” or “static”a. “Dynamic” means most weeks have daily <strong>and</strong>/or weekly specials.NOTE: If your café has static items in addition to your daily/weekly specials,the café is still considered “dynamic.”b. “Static” means that you DO NOT offer specials in that café. If you opt <strong>for</strong>“static” you then have two ways to tell your guests what their food optionsare:3


A static menu board. Example:A description, with or without a logo/other image:4


B. Whether your café is dynamic (specials) or static (no specials), you should work with your RMDto include a nice description. To do this go to “Café Details”:Here are some things that are helpful to know when writing a café description:Final station names <strong>and</strong> any other offerings—grab ’n’ go or mercantile, <strong>for</strong> example.Overall café concept—including any decor notes.Examples of menu items that will be served (sample menus are great).Themes or special concepts that the chef will be implementing.If there is more than one café—what makes this one different?Location—whether in the same building as other cafés.Any special notes on the café that may be of interest to a guest.5


B. You can then edit the names of the stations, hide stations from your weekly calendar, add newstations, <strong>and</strong> change the order of your stations:NOTE: Order determines the order the stations are listed on your weekly calendar view, on the printmenu <strong>for</strong> staff, <strong>and</strong> <strong>for</strong> your guests. Make sure to put your most important stations higher up tominimize scrolling <strong>for</strong> you <strong>and</strong> to feature those specials <strong>for</strong> your guests on Cafebonappetit.com.NOTE: You cannot “remove” a station if any specials have ever been assigned to that station. Thereason you cannot “remove” a station is that it will delete all of the menu items from the database.Instead, you can elect to “hide” a station. When you “hide” a station, the station <strong>and</strong> any itemsassociated with it will no longer appear on the calendar.VI.Café Day Parts & HoursMake sure that every minute in the day is accounted <strong>for</strong> under “Hours” in Café Manager, so your guestsknow when you are open <strong>and</strong> what their dining options are throughout the day.A. Add custom day parts under the Day Parts tab if you have any.1. The following day parts are already in Café Manager Day Parts, <strong>and</strong> do NOT need to beadded: Breakfast | Brunch | Lunch | Dinner | Dessert | Grab ’n’ Go | Late Night2. If you have custom day parts, such as Continental Breakfast, Morning Grab & Go,Afternoon Snack, <strong>and</strong> so on, that you want to call out <strong>for</strong> your guests, add these underDay Parts:7


3. Add the day part name.NOTE: If this day part will overlap with any other day parts <strong>and</strong>/or will be offeredmore than once during the day, make sure to check the appropriate box(s).4. The custom day part you added will be available immediately under Hours so you canassign hours to it.B. Add/Edit REGULAR Café HoursNOTE: If you have overlapping hours <strong>for</strong> a custom day part <strong>and</strong> default day parts, add thehours to the CUSTOM day part FIRST, <strong>and</strong> THEN add the hours to your breakfast/lunch/dinnerday part.1. Click on “Hours”:2. Add your regular hours to the st<strong>and</strong>ard day parts (Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Dinner,Grab ’n’ Go, Dessert, Late Night) <strong>and</strong> to any custom day parts you created in Step Aabove:8


3. Using the “Message” field allows you to add in<strong>for</strong>mation about your day parts, soyour guests have an overview of what dining options are available at the café:C. Add/Edit SPECIAL Café HoursHaving SPECIAL café hours allows you to let your guests know of any upcoming closures dueto holidays, spring break, special events, etc., <strong>and</strong> if you will be opening earlier or later onspecific days.1. You can set special hours or closures as far in advance as you like:9

C. Add/edit your special’s plate name/description:You can type in your item’s name (Plate Name) <strong>and</strong> description (Description):NOTE: Copying <strong>and</strong> pasting menu in<strong>for</strong>mation from Excel, Word, websites, <strong>and</strong> other sources cancause strange characters, line breaks, or errors. If you experience problems with your website’sdisplay of your items or your printed station signage, try typing your menu info instead, or if youmust copy <strong>and</strong> paste, try copying <strong>and</strong> pasting into Notepad (text <strong>for</strong>mat) <strong>and</strong> THEN copying <strong>and</strong>pasting from Notepad into Café Manager.D. Using the Plate Name fieldThe Plate Name field should be used to state the key ingredients or general name of a menuitem (e.g., Chicken Teriyaki), while the item description field is great <strong>for</strong> specifying ingredients<strong>and</strong> options (e.g., tofu available), <strong>and</strong> describing preparation methods (if necessary).ExamplesPlate Name: Sriracha-marinated Hodo Soy tofu burritoDescription: with baby bok choy, sweet coconut rice, <strong>and</strong> cilantro chutney in a Mi RanchotortillaPlate Name: Fatted Calf maple sausage breakfast s<strong>and</strong>wichDescription: with a fried Glaum Egg Ranch cage-free egg <strong>and</strong> sharp cheddar on a whole-wheatEnglish muffinPlate Name: Ortiz Farm strawberry <strong>and</strong> Pt. Reyes blue cheese saladDescription: with arugula, ciabatta croutons, <strong>and</strong> honey-black pepper vinaigretteStyle PointersHow to describe dishes served with a sauce or dressing: “mixed greens with balsamicdressing,” NOT “mixed greens with a balsamic dressing”When listing options, “from” is usually a better choice than “between.”For example:“Choose from roast beef or roast chicken”“Choose from roast beef, roast chicken, or black bean patty”Always spell out “vegetables” (never “veggies” or “veg”)Avoid unappetizing words such as bucket, pile, slab, pool, puddle, <strong>and</strong> dribble (drizzleis a good alternative).Avoid clichés such as “on a bed/pool of,” “grilled to perfection,” “perched atop,” <strong>and</strong>“resting on.”Use “roast beef” instead of “roasted beef” when referring to s<strong>and</strong>wiches.12

In addition, all Farm to Forkproducers <strong>and</strong> their cities (e.g., Watsonville, CA) are part of the custom spelling checker.NOTE regarding capital letters: In some regions <strong>and</strong> at some accounts, normal rules <strong>for</strong>capitalization are not followed on our menus. If you believe that your client or region requires you touse all lowercase, contact your RMD. Otherwise, if you use lowercase <strong>for</strong> a word that is normallycapitalized, such as a city or Farm to Fork vendor, the spelling checker will consider it a misspelledword:21


XIV. Saving Time: Cloning, Multiple Day Parts/Days, Borrowing fromSearchable DatabaseA. CloningRather than retyping your menu, you can clone a particular item, a particular station’sitems, a particular day, or a whole week.
