belated_frog_pants ( @belated_frog_pants@beehaw.org ) English1•6 months agoNot to be insulting: You’ll be in the minority. Most larger cities have moved to this style in newer restaurants and many older ones since covid
Not that that doesn’t suck because poor/homeless folks often cant afford or have a way to have a smartphone and keep it charged so no restaurants for them unless they take cash
Pissnpink ( @Pissnpink@feddit.uk ) English2•6 months agoSure, if I’m in Italy at some fancy restaurant, give me a nice menu to peruse. But most restaurants are turn and burn establishments that make money off volume and I don’t want their dirty menu when I’m trying to get cheap happy hour food after work or quick lunch take out.
All the nicer restaurants I’ve been to either have physical menus as the standard, or it’s a more “hip” place and they have them upon request.
This is weird how it’s been such a cultural dividing line. It’s like the last place consumers feel like they have any influence and are leaning hard into it
