    Same thing, but the waiter took my order directly without going via their website/app/whatever-the-fuck-was-behind-the-qr-code when I refuse to use their online system as I had already seen their menu outside and knew what I wanted.

    Funnily enough about 5 minutes later two people sat in the table next to mine and they also asked to order direct from the waiter who commented to them “Yeah, we actually have quite a number of people who don’t want to use the online system”.

    Mind you, I’m in a country where that shit isn’t at all common and it just comes out as them trying to skint on service and most places I’ve seen that opened up with digital ordering systems ended up closing down after a while.

    I bet that if they didn’t give people the option to order via the waiter their business would’ve already gone down.
