Hi, good morning.
I could build this for you within 24 hours (with retina support) and have it ready to upload... I could also create a nice gesture-controlled 'page turn' mechanism for you, to make the most of the presentation.
I'm new to remote freelancing, but I've been involved with the mobile industry for 10 years.
From the sounds of your description, it seems that you are NOT looking to have the app distributed to everyone 9through the app store), but to have the menus on iPads, in 'console mode', either in, or near the restaurant. If this is the case, you may not even need an Apple Developer account. I could distribute this to your chosen devices using an ad-hoc distribution profile... Let me know if this is the case.
I'm happy to chat about your brief in more detail if you need to (on Skype / GoToMeeting etc), just let me know if that suits.
I'll leave it there for now, but if you have any questions, or would like me to elaborate 'on any of the above', pleased on't hesitate to get back in touch.
Best regards
Mark
