#10 is not accurate. The reason most successful restaurants limit menu items is pure economics. It doesn't make sense to stock expensive ingredients for menu choices that are seldom ordered. Doesn't anyone watch "Restaurant Impossible"?
Quite a few restaurants, especially franchises, don't make the dish onsite. It comes pre-prepared and frozen and is heated in a mw. They call it "quality control".
Re menus: We stopped eating at Red Lobster years ago when their menu became confusing and the "quality controlled" dishes tasted more like cardboard. Fresh local seafood is what we seek out now.
