ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa dalam Industri Perhotelan khususnya Bisnis Hotel, maka Restoran dan bisnis makanan sebagai salah satu “profit center” di hotel seringkali menghadapi tantangan dalam mengembangkan menu yang menarik bagi pelanggan, namun juga efisien dari segi biaya dan sumber daya. Pengembangan menu yang efektif dengan metode rekayasa menu (Menu-Engineering) dapat meningkatkan pendapatan sekaligus mencapai kepuasan pelanggan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menggunakan metode rekayasa menu sebagai landasan utama yang bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis menu-menu yang ada. Lebih lanjut Peneliti melihat bahwa pemilihan metode dengan menggunakan Menu-Engineering saja tidak cukup, terutama untuk menentukan langkah-langkah strategi pengelolaan restoran hingga mencapai titik optimal. Oleh karena itu, peneliti melakukan kajian mendalam dengan menggunakan metode Two-Step Cluster yang diharapkan mampu merancang strategi rekayasa menu yang dapat membantu restoran meningkatkan penjualan dan efisiensi operasional secara optimal. Objek penelitiannya adalah Hotel Bintang 5 di Kota Palembang yaitu “The Alts Hotel”.
