I had the same problem a couple of times. What I found to work
was:
1) Drop to a shell, exiting X completely
2) Run update-menus as root
3) Run update-menus as your regular user
4) Restart X and your menus should be back
There is probably a much better way to do this, but this was all
I could figure out to do and it seemed to work for me.
