> restaurants that have QR-code menus that download a PDF
Oh yes, about half of the time when a restaurant requires me to scan their QR Code to read their online menu, it's a 20 MB PDF - not a responsive web page. And the PDF usually has multiple columns of text, which means I need to zoom and horizontally scroll (generally a big no-no in web design). I'm a technologist at heart and I find this implementation so needlessly bad, and an extremely poor use of technology. I would prefer a no-bullshit paper menu instead.
