Main Menu

Are the numbers in parentheses the prices?

Perhaps energy content would be the better interpretation. The desserts pack it in.

The rhombic triacontahedron comes in three portion sizes. We could do portion sizes for more of the others but this menu is designed to stay short.

2F means 2-frequency i.e. all edges doubled in size compared to the cube of volume 3.
