Bootstrap columns not equal height so not displaying properly - Is clearfix the answer?

Hi,

The columns in my Bootstrap grid to render so that there's not big gaps everywhere - this is happening because my columns are not of equal height. I've been searching for an answer and I think it may be something to do with clearfix - but I can't quite crack it.

The page in question is here - http://www.danielbeale.co.uk/donalberto/menu.html

Can anyone help?

Thanks, Dan

Personally, I would create 1 row with 3 columns in it and stack the content within the 3 columns.

The stacked the information would then be easier to rearrange and balance to the page. To me, this very much looks like a content/design issue, instead of a bootstrap or clearfix issue, but that might just be me :)

There is a great article on that here - requires adding some CSS classes: http://www.minimit.com/articles/solutions-tutorials/bootstrap-3-responsive-columns-of-same-height

I really miss Equalizer js feature from Foundation Responsive Framework http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/components/equalizer.html
