MENUS & DISHES TEMPLATE

Thali map

A steel thali seen from above with every katori numbered, and a key naming what is in each — the whole combo plate read at a glance, its price in a brand roundel on the rim when the post gives one. Works for any combo, meal or 'what's on the plate' post.

When the AI picks it

MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Thali map for posts that teach or get people to act, when the message is one product in the spotlight, several products or a menu or a list. It is built first to teach.

It reads each post’s goal and shape first, then its own words, the platform and the facts you have, and offers this template only where it fits.

Who it’s for

Made for Food & drink. The Director offers it only to brands of that kind, so it never turns up for a business it does not suit.

What it needs

Only your post. It is made from your copy and your brand kit — there is nothing else to prepare.

Rules the AI follows

Word for word from the template library. The Director follows the copy rules when it writes into the template, and the visual review checks every creative against the visual rules.

Copy rules

  1. Every dish, the centre and the price come from the post or the menu; the plate shows only what is listed.
  2. Dish names are short (one to three words); notes say what is in them, from the post.
  3. The footnote is a real condition from the post (refills, timings), never an invented promise.

Visual rules

  1. A brushed-steel thali from above, its katoris filled with palette-coloured food and numbered with pins.
  2. A key lists each number with the dish name in bold and a short note; the price sits in a tilted brand roundel on the plate's rim.
  3. Title top-left, logo at the foot; nothing is drawn as a realistic dish.
