tables - How to let a user choose from a list of menu options


I have the following task: Design a website which offers menu options for a week, whereas on each day you basically have 2 options to choose from (Soup is always fixed):



  • Soup


  • Menu 1

  • Menu 2


Now I would like to display a website which contains 5 columns (vertical) which show the days Monday through Friday. A user may log in to the website, then choose for each day if he/she wants Menu 1 or 2 (or nothing). It will probably look like this (columns/row-wise, not design-wise; ignore the lower part).


Example


Now I'm stuck on how I would want the user to select an item (and also to be able to de-select items in case he wants to later on).


The whole thing is intended to be used on a touchscreen in full-screen mode mounted in the office. There is a keyboard/mouse available but it would be better if it could be operated by touching.


I thought of a checkbox, but this would allow Multi-Selection, Radio Buttons .. where would I place them? A drop-down? Looks somewhat strange. ....


Do you have any better ideas? Any good examples?
