## Direct links
- Book directly: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/f9b87923 (through acuity acting for the business)
- Order directly: https://app.squareup.com/gift/5KJ1VMBQTXDMK/order (through square acting for the business)
- Menu: https://kitakar.ca/menu
- Phone: 7789876777

## What to fix first

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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.
