**Where:** Canary Drink Subcategories — dev, table 9941 — the restaurant this journey is named after. Canary Mosaic is driven as a control, because it is a restaurant that really does have sub-categories.

### 01 · PATRON

### 04 · OWNER

**I expected:** I sign in as the owner of this restaurant and open its Menu

**I saw:** "Failed to load menu — please try again." Retry changes nothing. I cannot reach the menu builder, so I cannot attach a drink or file a sub-category.

### 05 · OWNER

**I expected:** I try the other door — Food Items

**I saw:** The page is one red line: "Failed to fetch menu-item summaries". There is no Add Dish button, no list, nothing. Both owner doors into this restaurant's menu are shut.

**Why it ended here:** Looked at the diner's Beverages and then tried to do the owner half.
