Receive Menu Balance Recommendations

As a Host, I want to receive suggestions for improving my menu’s flavor balance, So that I can offer a more diverse and appealing selection to guests.

  • Given I have a menu with flavor imbalance (e.g., all drinks are sweet)
  • When I request balance recommendations
  • Then the system suggests:
    • Specific recipes to add that would improve balance
    • Recipes from my collection that fill gaps
    • Flavor profiles to target (e.g., “Add a bitter or herbal drink”)
    • Modifications to existing recipes to adjust balance
  • And each suggestion includes:
    • Recipe name
    • How it improves balance
    • Difficulty level
    • Required ingredients
  • And I can add suggested recipes to my menu with one click

NOT YET IMPLEMENTED

Requires menu flavor diversity analysis to be implemented first (Story 4).

Prerequisites:

  • Menu flavor diversity analysis (⏳ not yet implemented)
  • Recipe collection with flavor profiles (✅ implemented)
  • Recommendation algorithm for balance suggestions
