Hard Rock Cafes Revamp the Menu; Sailor Jerry News

THE STRIP — Hard Rock Cafe just unleashed a new menu that includes 30 new items and changes to 28 existing items. More than 27 types of buns were sampled before the final brioche bun was selected. Burgers were evaluated by a number of different factors, including various blend combinations of premium ground beef and brisket, as well as fat to lean ratios, thickness and shape. During the menu revamp, Hard Rock made freshness and quality a top priority. The entire entrée salad selection of the menu was reinvented, with five varieties of lettuce combinations brought in during the testing phase. Seasonal options for vegetable of the day and various burger toppings were added as well. The restaurant also updated glasses, plates and serving dishes, working with 14 different suppliers who brought in hundreds of patterns, shapes, sizes and colors. [EaterWire]
