No More Squinting at the Menu {Luxist}

Apr 29th 2008 8:15AM I saw this in The Original Pancake House in Boca; it was fascinating. It speaks a couple of languages (you pick one from the keyboad), and it pages a waiter when you're ready to order. The kids seem to love it: it's an electronic toy and they're fanatics. But the Seniors really like not having to squint and hold menus at arm's length or have to ask staff to read to them.

Taylannas' Menus That Talk vocalize what's for dinner {Engadget}

May 24th 2007 8:32PM Actually, with a detachable earphone and a plastic menu card along with other built-in refinements, the volume of noise in most restaurants is not a factor and cleaning the menu between diners is a snap; most restaurant menus especially those from chains like Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc. are quite expensive to produce being laminated and very pictorial. This makes adding changes to the menu prohibitive, not a factor for Menus That Talk. And when's the last time you could ask for a specific language menu or--perish the thought--get a Braille menu?
