The challenge

Customers know the restaurant through Instagram and Google Maps, but its name, hours and menu are not in one reliable place. People have also started asking AI assistants about restaurants, and those assistants need one correct source to read from as well. So the need was a single source for the name, hours, phone, location and menu.

What we built

  • An official website in Arabic and English: Home, the full menu, About, Visit us
  • A control panel for the menu: sections, items, opening hours, staff invitations and an audit log
  • One information sheet that everything is copied from (the website, the structured data and Google Maps), so no place contradicts another
  • Consistent name, address and hours across Google Maps and directory platforms
  • Preparation for appearing in AI assistants: an llms.txt file and structured data
  • An implementation plan and operating guides in Arabic for Google Maps, the menu, the platforms and the handover
  • Measuring visibility before and after implementation so the owner can see the difference

The result

The website and the menu panel are running after the restaurant approved the proposal, along with one information sheet that all platforms copy from.

My part

This project is my work from start to finish at Girsu Tech: the implementation plan, the visual direction, the copy, the public website and the menu panel. My concern was that every place says the same thing about the restaurant, with the same name and the same hours.

  • An implementation plan with acceptance criteria
  • One source of information that every platform copies from
  • Local search and the restaurant's presence in AI assistants
  • A control panel for the menu and opening hours
