# menu-stability

_Witnessed 2026-09-04T05:53:34.242Z — QRATE-UAT-1_

**Where:** Anant, table 12 — a quiet table, so I disturb nobody's meal.

**Who:** just me, a diner reading the menu twice.

_Covers what a person can see of two canaries: **pos-non-regression** (does the menu hold still) and **bar-tender** (can a diner see the drinks band). The canary's own first step — 'POS is OFF for this restaurant' — is a property of its private fixture; on Anant POS is ON, so that step is not mine to witness._

### 01 · PATRON

**I expected:** I open the menu and it actually has dishes on it

**I saw:** I can count 32 dishes I could add. The page reads: Bud Light Michelob Ultra Drinks Starters Mains Desserts LASSI 4 BEER (BOTTLE) 11 ANANT MOCKTAILS 7 BEER (DRAFT) 4 SODA 6 Lassi 4 dishes Lass

> **Does the menu hold still:** 32 dishes the first time, 32 the second.

### 02 · PATRON

**I expected:** I look away and look again — the same dishes are still there

**I saw:** 32 dishes — exactly the same as before

> **Drinks band:** I can see drinks, beer, cocktail, mocktail, wine, lassi, soda. The bar-tender canary skips its own cocktail steps because its fixture has no cocktails — on a real restaurant menu the drinks are plainly there.

### 03 · PATRON

**I expected:** I can find the drinks on the menu, the way a thirsty person would

**I saw:** drinks I can see: drinks, beer, cocktail, mocktail, wine, lassi, soda

---

**Verdict:** WALKED

**Why it ended here:** read the menu twice and found the drinks — that is the whole promise
