Very cool concept - thank you for sharing it! I think would be a great solution to the near-daily "what should we eat" problem.

If I could make a (not-important) suggestion, I think being able to re-arrange / categorize menu items would be useful. Something that lets you group together drinks apart from snacks as an example.

The "what should we eat" problem was a big source of tension in our household since the arrival of our first child. Too much time-consuming, too much planning effort. What changed our life (and I really mean it) is the app https://jow.com: it suggests you a list of meals for the week suited to your family and equipment, and it creates a shopping list for your preferred delivery provider. I only have good things to say about it and could go on for hours.

We're actually in a unique situation where the planning+buying isn't the hard part, but the deciding is. We're within walking distance of a super-cheap grocery store and I'm able to cook a wide variety of dishes - many of which I can make quickly. The hard part is my wife doesn't do well with open-ended questions like "what would you like to eat"? Seeing a discrete list of things I can make and her just picking/submitting the options would solve the problem.

Though that only holds while we have free time. If we have a kid, then I can see a great amount of value in that app.

I posted this in another comment but couldn't help but notice this discussion since it seemed relevant. I've been working on https://mealsyoulove.com, which is a meal planning app that also integrates with Kroger and Instacart for ordering groceries. Jow looks similar (not sure what their pricing model is?), but I'm leveraging AI to build highly tailored recipes and meal plans while allowing you to also import your own recipes to incorporate.
