Little Spice
A fast, mobile-first website for a Calgary Indian & Pakistani restaurant that turns browsing visitors into phone calls, table bookings, and walk-ins.
The previous web presence couldn't answer a hungry visitor's basic questions fast enough, including what's on the menu, is it open, and how do I get there, and every menu change was a developer request. The new site puts a searchable 89-item menu, live hours, directions, and one-tap calling in front of visitors in seconds, with content the owner can keep current without code changes, directly reducing friction between 'I'm hungry' and 'I'm ordering.'
Little Spice, an Indian & Pakistani restaurant in Calgary, needed more than a digital menu. Their old web presence made it hard for hungry visitors to quickly find what they served, whether they were open, or how to get in touch, and every menu update meant calling a developer.
I built them a full marketing website on Next.js with a searchable, categorized menu of 89 dishes across 14 categories (Starters, Biryani, Tandoori, Seafood, Vindaloo, Desserts and more), a rotating offers section to spotlight daily specials, a photo gallery, customer testimonials, live Google Maps directions, and a direct contact form, all wrapped in a fast, responsive layout that looks as good on a phone in a parking lot as it does on desktop. The menu and offers content is centralized in structured data files, so the restaurant's day-to-day content (prices, dishes, specials) can be updated without touching component code. The result is a site that answers a hungry visitor's three questions, what do you serve, are you open, and how do I get there or order, in under a few seconds.
