Grandfather Finds Calling Collecting Menus
Daniel Rayas moved to New York in January from El Paso, Texas, to care for his newborn granddaughter, Eva Lucia. But he needed a job to pay his room and board, one flexible enough to allow for daily diaper-changing duty.The unlikely solution: collecting take-out menus.
Allmenus.com, an online yellow pages for restaurants, sent him on a quest to reel in menus from eateries across the New York metropolitan area. Four months and one worn out pair of boots later, Rayas has snapped up 10,000 take-out menus.
“My motto is ‘No menu left behind,’” said Rayas, 55, who gets paid $2 for each menu.
