The way you have written it, master _must_ be a Toplevel object. So,
maybe parent is the correct name, but it doesn't really matter.
As a side note, there is no reason for this class to inherit Frame.
Aside from packing and sizing the frame,
what is the best way to write tkinter menus? As toplevels or as frame

To limit the menu in the application window, will be difficult. But here

appear in a menu by specializing the Tkinter Menu class:
