McDonald’s Japan to Close 110 Stores, Expand Home Delivery Service in 2013
RocketNews24 | Nov 3, 2012
...For many {Japanese customers}, though, the news of home delivery means nothing; they still haven’t gotten over McDonald’s recent decision to remove menus from the counters of its restaurants…
. . . . . . . “Home delivery? Pffft. First bring the menus back.”
. . . . . . . “First they remove the menus, now they’re closing stores. Kaboom. Mickey D’s is dead.”...
...McDonald’s aims to have 250 stores McLivering food by the end of the year, with the possibility of making the service available in every one of its 1500 branches in the near future. Delivery costs 300 yen, available on orders over 1,500 yen (US$18)...

I have a lived with a McDee's less than a minute away for nearly 4 years here...I don't think I've been there more than a few times. (most of the time it's because I send lemurs there to wait for me to get home)

Anyhow, they removed the menus on the counter? WTF?
