Left to your imagination. This is an ideal homework assignment, performed with student teams. The wise student will look at DTUI6 Sections 8.2 through 8.4 in the text (or admittedly the entire Chapter 8) before embarking on this adventure.

Typically, combinations of menu types may prove (after usability testing) to be the best answer.
