Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Festival of India is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Festival of India's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It can't find a link to book or order online.
## What to fix first
- Languages: English, Indonesian

- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **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": "Festival of India",
  "url": "https://www.festivalofindiafoods.com",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "Preston Street 422"
  },
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 45.4002411,
    "longitude": -75.7095567
  },
  "servesCuisine": [
    "indian"
  ]
}

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