Proposal for a novel computerized menu-presentation interface for restaurants

Published: 24 September 2013 Publication History

Abstract

Food is a necessity of life for all, and is a source of entertainment to many. Due to poor design of menu-presentation system in restaurants, be it online or manual, often people are forced to select dishes, without properly being informed about whether it would cater their likes and dislikes or their health requirements. It is a fact that the choices and requirements are varied and designing a menu-interface to satisfy everybody is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose a general framework for a low-cost customizable computerized menu-system that any restaurant or food-chain can adopt for better user-friendliness and usefulness for themselves as well as for their customers.
