Caidan (菜单 in Chinese, /cài dān/, meaning food menu) is a clean and minimal food menu template.
See the example.pdf file to see how it looks. Additionally, cu1ch3n/menu serves as a practical example project utilizing this template.
Ensure that WebOMints GD, LXGW WenKai, and Ysabeau Infant fonts are installed first. The required fonts are provided in fonts.
To use this template with typst.app, you may upload the required fonts manually (Note: LXGW WenKai may be too large to upload onto typst.app).
