Sounds like the menu of my favorite lunch stand in Dallas.  Much simpler
menu than McDonald's down the street - burgers, chicken sandwich, fries
and chips in a rack on the side.

And McDs has a smaller (or at least less complicated) menu than I-Hop.

Not saying you're wrong - I think you're spot on - just playing with the
idea.  I had a skimpy lunch, and I really _miss_ that burger stand, so
the food metaphor came easily.
