Menus

Read every published menu, its groups and items, priced in the venue's currency — the display menu, not the seated guest's order menu.

Every published menu with its groups and items, priced in the venue's currency. This is the display menu; what a seated guest can order from is the table session's menus (QR codes and table sessions). It follows the same key rules as the rest of /api/venues/** (Keys and headers) and answers 404 with a problem body when no venue has that slug.
