## Direct links
- Menu: https://cakesnladders.co.nz/menu/
- Phone: +64 21 216 5514

## What to fix first
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+13 points) Only a phone number or WhatsApp, which agents cannot use yet. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so an agent can find it. Add a booking or ordering page. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.
