No, I Don't Want to Scan A QR Code To Read Your Menu
You know how annoying it is to sit down at a restaurant and be asked to scan a QR code for the menu instead of just being handed a good old-fashioned paper one? That’s the main point I dive into today. I’m all about keeping things simple; I want to hold a menu that’s got a bit of character, maybe even a few stains from past meals. Sure, I get that it’s cheaper and easier for restaurants to go digital, but dining out shouldn’t mean I’m stuck staring at my phone. It’s about the whole experience, right? I want to enjoy my meal without the distraction of my device. So, let’s chat about this shift in dining culture and how it affects our experiences. What do you think? Hit me up on my site to share your thoughts.
Takeaways:
- When dining out, holding a physical menu is part of the experience you cherish.
- You might find it frustrating that many restaurants now push digital menus on your phone.
- The tactile nature of a paper menu can enhance your dining experience, even if it's a bit worn.
- It's important to share your thoughts on dining preferences; feel free to reach out at jamesabrown.net.
