I suppose this depends on the type of restaurant. You're never going to see a picture on the menu of a high end restaurant. In the same way that people equate a screw top with bad wine (even though it's about 10 times better of a technology than a cork) people will always equate pictures on a menu with Olive Garden type restaurants.
Also the really good restaurants base their menu on what's fresh that day, so pictures wouldn't be practical.
And I think that people who are intimidated by the lack of pictures on a menu tend to mostly dine at the places that have them.
- waterlesscloud 14y agoI tend to agree, but digital pics could easily be updated for whatever was fresh. Just take the pic that morning and put it in the system. Thinking about it, I bet there's a way to use pics effectively even in a high end place. Sell the chef with the pics, or better yet, sell the prep process. The extraordinary cooking process, etc. In the end, though, you're right. High end is about the experience and you want that personal touch.

- usaphp 14y agoI absolutely agree with you here. Also I would like to note that having a single tablet for let's say 4-6 guests is impractical and will take lot more time to order vs having a paper menu for each of them.
- mattmaroon 14y agoVery true. At Per Se you order wine off a tablet, which works because a table tends to order 1 bottle at a time.
