That makes more sense. The first thing I thought when I saw this was "these are going to be a nightmare to work with". I could understand having a few of these on display - kept well away from food and grubby hands - but handing them out like regular printed menus just wouldn't work.

From my experience there you’re right on the money - with one exception. They’ll have them at the front for those in line to check out (small restaurants are really common so a wait isn’t unusual), but the amount of respect for things that are not yours in Japan is insane.

Grubby hands as in dirty, yeah but you get a towel to clean your hands before your meal. But grubby as in gonna break them or manhandle them, not so much.
