What an assistant reads first

DescriptionDowntown Chicago restaurant with creative catalan-inspired tapas & inventive cocktails in a swanky setting overlooking Grant Park.

OpeningNone in the HTML

1 change so it reads plainly as what it is

  1. Make the first heading say what the title says

    The title and the first heading share no word that says what the site does: “Mercat a la Planxa | Chicago Tapas Restaurant and Bar” and “Home”.

    Agent instructions

    On mercatchicago.com, give the home page one first heading (h1) that says, in a reader's words, what its title says the site is: Restaurants and cafes.

  2. Read it again

    mttr reads the site again and says how it reads now.

An estimate made by mttr against 16 lines of work, from its home page before any script runs. It is not what any assistant says about the site. Rethink the direction with us.
