Ordering Bias

Even before I got to the restaurant I had an idea of what I wanted to eat and so my goal when first looking at the menu was to find if they had what I wanted to eat.  In design, this could be accomplished by using some sort of ingredient picker to find items that might have a flavor you are interested in.  Also it is important that when you first sit down the waiter takes your drink order first so if you have a digital menu you should be able to make your order as soon as you sit down.  Also when the menu items aren't accurate or clear enough you have the option to ask the waiter.  Lastly dessert is almost always ordered AFTER the meal so it is important that menu not turn off and not be usable again once you order.
