A la Carte Menu is a food and drink menu in which each item is listed and priced separately.

An "a la carte menu" in the travel, transport, and hotel context refers to a type of menu where guests can order individual dishes and pay separately for each item, as opposed to ordering a pre-set meal or a fixed-price menu. A la carte menus typically offer a wide range of options, including appetizers, entrees, and desserts, and they are commonly found in restaurants, hotels, and other food service establishments.

For example, in a hotel restaurant, an a la carte menu might offer a variety of dishes such as soups, salads, seafood, and meat dishes, allowing guests to order exactly what they want and to pay for each item separately.

In transportation, a la carte menu can also be found in airlines, trains, or buses, where passengers can purchase individual food items such as sandwiches, snacks, or drinks instead of having to purchase a pre-set meal or a fixed-price menu.

A la carte menus are often considered to be more flexible and customizable than other types of menus, and they can be a good option for guests who have specific dietary needs or preferences. They also often offer more choices and allow guests to control their spending.
