- 06

Stack FAQs
Do I need Menu markup?
Optional. If you publish full menu sections, add MenuSection/MenuItem markup. For many sites, linking the menu URL is sufficient.
How should I handle multiple locations?
Create separate Restaurant objects (unique @id/URL) per location or use the Multi-Location stack for a hub page.
