Whether or not you are a picky eater, the ordering process is surely made easier thanks to savvy new digital menus. From touchscreen tabletops on which diners can create their own pizza to digitized servers that deliver meals via drone, these culinary advancements speak to the Gen Z demographic while inciting Millennials as well.
Another clever integration of digital menus into the dining experience is from Pizza Hut UK, who have developed an app that tracks a user's gaze and suggests toppings based on where their eyes settle.
Whether a digitized menu is offering all of the proprietary information that you would normally bug your server about or if it lists caloric intake data, there are a variety of ways that restaurants can reinvent the dining experience by introducing smart technology in the form of digital menus.
