Buttermilk Kitchen is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Buttermilk Kitchen's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to ezCater, a marketplace.

## What to fix first
- **Ordering only through ezcater.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Buttermilk Kitchen",
  "url": "http://www.buttermilkkitchen.com/",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 33.869857,
    "longitude": -84.3806275
  }
}
</script>
```

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