Speisekarte vs Menü
I learned a new word for Menu today: Das Menü. Previously I had known Speisekarte to be for menu. It was mentioned that Menü was used in a special context, but that was not really expanded on. My first question is when is it proper to use which word.
Also, if I am asking for the menu I would say 'ich möchte die Speisekarte' but with Menü I am only seeing it used with Bestellen. To order a menu seems a little odd to me, could someone shed some light on this one?

für vs. auf
I am having an issue figuring out when to use für and auf when it means for.
I normally see für in most cases ex:
Ich möchte ein Geschenk für Alex kaufen.
Once in a while I see auf instead. ex:
Ich worte auf einen Freund.
Why would auf be used instead of für, and where else would this apply?
