The prompt

Calculate the food cost of my dishes and suggest menu prices. Restaurant type: [e.g. café, dhaba, cloud kitchen] Dishes and recipes: [for each dish: ingredients, quantity per portion, and the purchase price and unit of each ingredient] Other costs per plate: [packaging, gas or fuel share] Target food cost percentage: [e.g. 30%] Current prices (if any) and competitor prices I've seen: [optional] For each dish, show: 1. Cost per portion, ingredient by ingredient, with the maths. 2. Food cost percentage at the current price. 3. A suggested price to hit my target, rounded to a sensible menu number. 4. Flag dishes that are high-cost and low-margin. Then: 3 ways to lower cost without hurting taste (portion, substitutes, batch prep) and a short note on menu layout for the high-margin dishes. Use only my prices; mark missing ones [NEED PRICE].
