Ideal Meal is an engaging routine with beautifully designed props that is all about the fun and relatable topic of food! It's practical, easy to do, packs flat, instantly resets, and audiences absolutely love it. This is the perfect effect for beginners and pros alike!

The Effect:
A collection of cards with different drinks, appetizers, entrees, and desserts from a variety of restaurants are introduced. Your participant uses these as a menu of sorts to order a four-course meal. Once their choices are made, all the cards are turned over to reveal prices on the backs, with each item having a different value. Their selections are summed, and that total amount matches your prediction!

You will love how the ancient principle at play has been enhanced and camouflaged in a brand new way that hides and improves the workings, while also unlocking new features that elevate the routine.
