(01)Overview
A custom restaurant ordering platform developed for a family-owned Indian and Punjabi restaurant in Brisbane. The system is focused on digital takeaway and dine-in ordering, menu management, customer convenience, and a streamlined online sales experience.
02The brief
A family-run Punjabi restaurant in Alexandra Hills wanted its own ordering channel for takeaway, delivery and dine-in, with menu and sales management in one place.
03The approach
A custom ordering and sales-management system with delivery-location logic, customer accounts and an installable app experience so regulars can reorder in two taps.

Receipt & kitchen printers
Network printers receive jobs straight from the website — Epson ePOS / Server Direct Print and Star CloudPRNT poll for new orders, so nothing breaks if a counter PC is off. USB printers print from the browser-based dashboard on the counter computer. Every ticket comes from a template with tokens (order number, type, time, items, modifiers, notes, totals, payment status), with auto-print on new orders, separate kitchen and customer copies, and one-click reprint. New orders trigger a sound alert in the dashboard and print automatically, so the kitchen starts cooking before anyone touches a screen.
