## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+22.5 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+5 points) Missing: telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot.** (no points, but worth doing) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **29 prices on the landing page, the middle one SGD 9.50.** In Singapore, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is SGD 20.00.

## 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.
