After they order their drinks, the food menu pops up. It is split into categories, such as Appetizers, Soups, and so on. It is very similar in terms of the design to the drink menu in terms of layout. Each food product is listed as well as the picture, pricing, and other pertinent information. Like the drink menu, there are options to filter and search the menu and there are buttons at the bottom of the screen to compare and send in the order.

John, Jane, Joe, and Julie are able to browse through the menu quickly and select what they want. When they check on an item, they are allowed to provide special instructions so Joe can specify his steak to be prepared medium-well for example. Jane and Julie are able to filter the menu to only display seafood, and then compare seafood items side-by-side to determine what they want.

Users are able to compare two items side-by-side and compare each item’s ingredients, pricing, pictures, and other relevant information. There is a back button to go back to the menu to allow the user to select which item they prefer.

When John, Jane, Joe, or Julie have a hard time deciding which of two or three or more items they want, they can click the compare button at the bottom of the menu and it will bring up a comparison page. This will allow them to make their decisions easier and faster.

The next stage is the entertainment stage, where the user will be able to browse the web or play a social game amongst the people at the table. The main view will be two icons, web and games. The web option will open a browser while the game option will open a tiled view of games available.

The four friends decide to play a social word game called Scrabble while they wait for their food.

The last stage is the payment stage, where the user will see a list of the items they ordered, along with the price and the subtotal, tax, and total amount. On the side, there is a helpful menu with the amount of money 10%, 15%, and 20% tip is. They are given the option to add tip to their bill and the option to split the bill. At the bottom of the page, they can choose their payment form. Paying by credit would allow the user to simply swipe their card while paying by cash will signal the waiter/waitress to come over.

On this screen, Joe and John want to split their check by couple and can easily do so with the split options. They will also be able to simply calculate the tip based on their input. Joe easily uses his credit card while John chooses to pay by cash.
