Sometimes now this is because of supply problems that make a single, consistent menu embarrassing to the business: nobody wants to have to say, "I'm sorry; we're out of salmon and eggplant, and we haven't had coconut milk for a week. Can I offer the three of you something else?" An electronic menu can be changed immediately and at practically no cost.
- HyperSane 4y agoAn electronic menu can also have prices that change every hour based on how busy the place is or even have prices based on demographic information gleaned from the user's phone.
- verall 4y agoWhat restaurants do this?
- JasonFruit 4y agoInternational House of Hypotheticals, Strawman Cafe, and the Red Herring Bar and Grill.

- worthless-trash 4y agoGreat now i want to go to a fish grilling bar.. Thanks a lot.
- HyperSane 4y agoNone that I'm aware of, but it WILL happen.
- drekipus 4y agoThis sounds like over estimating a lot of restaurants ability to handle electronic menus. I don't think I've seen that functionality in many restaurants at all. There is always a cost in updating the menu.

- soco 4y agoI see your point but I've been told so many times "sorry sir we're out of salmon and eggplant" and nobody seemed to care except me regretting the salmon and eggplant. So, not sure it's a real world argument.
