## Direct links
- Order directly: https://www.brownstonepancakefactory.com/order-online (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +1-201-945-4800

## What to fix first
- **Menu or price list lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to getbento.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.
