About the publication

An independent guide for the curious eater

Menu Fieldnotes explores familiar menus, regional variations and make-your-own combinations, with enthusiasm and a clear line between fact and fan lore.

Fan-made, plainly stated

This is an independent publication. It is not operated, sponsored or endorsed by McDonald’s, its franchisees, or related companies. Product names are used only to identify the menu items discussed.

What you’ll find here

Twenty editorial guides, ordering ideas, a price comparison tool that works from prices you enter, notes on regional menu products, a meal total calculator and a private notebook. We flag uncertainty so readers can verify current details at the source before making plans.

Editorial approach

Menus and promotions are time- and location-sensitive. We do not publish price lists or nutrition tables of our own; we point to official local pages and give you tools to work with the numbers you find. The site does not accept public submissions or comments.

Site author

Menu Fieldnotes is authored by Rabeea Naseer. Her professional portfolio is linked for attribution and context; it does not endorse or sponsor this guide.
