Have questions? We've got answers

How does the website handle such a broad Hakka and Thai menu?

The public HTML menu separates Thai and Hakka cuisine and groups dishes by familiar categories, including appetizers, soups, noodles, entrées, vegetarian selections, and set dinners. Guests can read descriptions and choices on the page rather than relying solely on a menu image.

Can visitors view and download the takeout menu?

Yes. The dedicated takeout page shows the client’s PDF in an embedded flipbook and provides a direct PDF download link. The PDF’s prices and terms may change, so the live document should be checked before quoting them elsewhere.

Why is the lunch special on its own page?

The separate page keeps lunch sets, inclusions, and conditions distinct from the full dine-in menu. That gives a visitor a focused route to the current lunch offer without implying that the promotion or price is permanent.

Does The Big Zen website process orders or payments directly?

No native cart, checkout, or on-site payment flow was observed. The site presents menus, clickable phone numbers, and delivery-partner branding. This case study should not describe it as an ecommerce build or claim that a third-party delivery order was tested.

How can guests find the Whitby restaurant?

The site provides a dedicated location page with a map, the Thickson Square address, opening hours, and phone numbers. Those details are published by the restaurant and should be rechecked before the case study goes live.

What does a mobile visitor see first?

The captured phone homepage shows the restaurant logo, compact navigation, cuisine headline, phone actions, and a menu link in a single-column layout. Implementation QA should verify that the case-study page preserves its own primary CTA and evidence down to 320 px.
