1. What is it?
A WhatsApp menu for canteens and cafeterias is a digital menu that updates daily or weekly. Change the daily special, prices, and options in seconds. Put a QR code at the entrance or on the table. Customers scan, see the menu on their phone, choose items, and send the order to your WhatsApp.
Fewer lines at peak hours. Fewer order errors. No printed menus that go out of date. Ideal for office canteens, school cafeterias, and takeaway spots.

After (illustrative): Maria created her WhatsApp menu. QR at the entrance. Customers scan, see today\'s specials, add to cart, send order. She updates sold-out items in seconds. Some order before the rush. Fewer lines, fewer errors, happier customers.
