The idea of a fixed menu is very cool, especially for people like these who love to eat but never know what they want. All of the decisions are made for you, selected by experts, and all you have to do is consume.
If an a la carte menu with rows upon rows of potential overwhelms you, visit to these restaurants to enjoy set meals of great variety. This is the sole decision you’ll have to make… I swear.
