Restaurant check
The waiter's guest check on the table: a pale ruled order pad with the combo's name and each item written up by hand — quantity and dish — the total circled in pen and a thank-you on the tear-off stub, a pencil beside it. A combo, a family meal or a set menu, ordered up.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Restaurant check for posts that get people to act or announce news, when the message is an offer or deal, a list or one product in the spotlight. It is built first to get people to act.
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
The Director offers it only when these exist. Without them it simply picks another template.
- A real number from your post or your brand facts
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
- The combo, every item and quantity, and the price come from the post; never add an item or a price.
Visual rules
- A pale brand-tint order pad, slightly turned on a dark speckled table: a printed brand-colour header and rules, the combo's name and items handwritten in dark pen over ruled lines with a quantity column, the total circled, a dotted tear line and 'thank you' in italic on the stub.
- A brand-colour pencil beside it and the logo on the table.
