Good discussion. I’m really wondering why some people don’t consider it as a separate product. Don’t you want to keep track of how much Chicken + Juice you’ve sold?
On the other hand you should configure something to be able to give it a specific price so having too many combinations will be still an issue. In fact I don’t mean creating separate products for ALL combinations such as Chicken + Coke, Chicken + Fanta, etc… You can configure single Chicken + Drink product and select a drink type as an order tag.
I like discussing such topics since it sometimes leads to some undiscovered nice features.
No, not yet, I haven’t thought about it yet. I am convinced nearly anything is possible though, and what @emre suggests (using Order Tags) is probably the simplest way to go about it.
For example, I have many different soda products that I sell as a Menu Item on their own. However, I also have a Cocktail Builder that has all of my Sodas and Juices listed as Order Tags that I can select while selling an alcoholic drink, so it is somewhat similar in this regard. In my case, a soda would sell for 30, but as part of a Cocktail, it is Free, but you could have values for the Order Tags if you wanted.
I have a question, I don’t know if here is the place to ask:
The manager of a restaurant asked if I can create something like “packs”, let’s say for £40, or £50 where the customer can order anything from the menu. It’s like “all you can eat” option
Yes you can do that. This post is over 1 year old. Instead of resurrecting old posts start a new one and be specific with your need give us examples to help us better understand your need.
