After the top fixes

What to fix first
- No structured data for the business +14 points
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
- No working HTTPS +3 points
The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- Menu or price list is a PDF +3 points
Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as an HTML page and keep the PDF as a download. How to fix it
- 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. How to fix it
