Menu Tools Inc. is a privately owned Canadian based company, which prides itself in increasing the success rate of restaurants and bars in North America by offering a service that increases profits, tightens cost controls while reducing administration for the manager or owner of the business.

Founder, Chef Wayne McKay has worked as an Executive Chef and Corporate Food & Beverage Cost Controller for Delta Hotels, Halifax World Trade and Convention Centre and Marine Atlantic, before founding Menu Tools as a way to offer his foodservice management skills to a broader base. Chef McKay’s passion, unlike most Chefs, is the business end of the business. Even with delicious food and many customers, many foodservice operations cannot make ends meet. Assisting operators and new start-ups with business practices specific to the foodservice industry, is his forte.

Chef McKay had been successfully operating a foodservice consulting business in Atlantic Canada since 1997 and partnering with one of his satisfied customers, the Georgoudis Family of VITO’S Restaurants, New Brunswick, has developed the Menu Maestro^®.

With the support of the National Research Council (NRC-IRAP) and the Technical expertise of AnyWare Group, Saint John, Menu Tools, along with our own in-house technical experts Andrew McIntyre and Dr. Chaouki Regoui, began the development of the Menu Tools on-line “Menu Maestro^®â€ť This advanced system took the proven successful system, enhanced it, and made it available on-line to a world wide audience.
