## What to fix first
- **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.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## 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.
