Rio state adopted a law requiring restaurants and bars to offer physical menus for clients who lack smartphones or simply want to ignore their devices.

A worker shows a digital menu at Casa Nossa restaurant in the Lapa neighbourhood in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.RIO DE JANEIRO - Leafing through the leather-bound menu at a classic Rio de Janeiro restaurant, the tile-floored, wood-panelled Armazem Sao Thiago, 28-year-old Paula Cardoso says something that amounts to heresy in this establishment:"I prefer QR code menus."

"It's the introduction to the house," says Carlos Fionda, a manager at the restaurant -- affectionately nicknamed"Bar do Gomes" -- in the picturesque hillside neighbourhood of Santa Teresa. Rio state adopted a law last week requiring restaurants and bars to offer physical menus for clients who lack smartphones, have technological troubles or simply want to ignore their devices and enjoy a meal with family and friends.And the QR code kerfuffle goes far beyond Brazil.

"You can access it on your phone, there are more pictures of the food. You can explore the menu better. menus get old." The Brazilian Association of Bars and Restaurants wants the government to leave the decision to owners."Both systems have their advantages and fans."
