  1. customer walks up to the register

  2. chef interacts with the register and selects the customer they are serving

  3. both chef and customer get a ui:
    • customer chooses party (solo or friends)
    • customer chooses seating preference (grill, booths, tables, cave, island, underwater)
    • customer chooses floor (upstairs or downstairs / inside or outside)
    • chef sees the customer’s choices in real time with indicators like:
    choosing party 🔁/✅
    choosing seat 🔁/✅
    choosing area 🔁/✅
    choosing floor 🔁/✅

  4. both chef and customer can cancel anytime during this stage, both are notified if the other cancels

  5. once the customer submits, chef is notified

  6. customers and chef are highlighted and an arrow appears so they can follow the chef to their seating. highlighting stops once the dining session begins

  7. chef leads the way to the seating and clicks “start dining session!” to begin

  8. customer gets a menu ui with prompts for drinks, appetizers, entrees and desserts, example: “to start off, what would you like to drink?”

  9. chef prepares and serves each course in order, the system guides the flow automatically: drinks → appetizers → entrees → desserts → repeat until all items served

  10. chef can serve multiple customers, the system ensures all customers orders are tracked

  11. both chef and customers can cancel the dining session anytime

  12. if all customers leave or cancel, session ends and chef is notified

  13. if the chef leaves or cancels during the session, available chefs are notified and can choose to continue the session. customer can choose to wait or leave

  14. when all courses are served, chef clicks “end dining session!”

  15. customers get a ui to tip or give gifts and a farewell message: “thank you for dining with us at kohau, farewell!”

  16. throughout the session, customers remain highlighted so the chef can easily locate them

#

the ui stays open so chefs and customers can follow each step with buttons appearing one at a time for each action^

#

this is just an idea! so i don’t expect anything to be implemented

Hey this is already implemented similarly, there is no 'start session' but u can serve them in the orders UI similarly, chefs hand their secret menu and they go on the same way
If they leave, the chef is to discontinue cuz there is no one to serve..!

my idea was more about a full guided “dining session” where both chef and customer are synced step by step (seating, ordering courses in order, tipping, etc) with UI prompts and buttons and other chefs can take over if needed
