# Table Order: a QR menu that sends orders straight to the kitchen

> A QR menu for cafés and restaurants in Phnom Penh. Guests order in Khmer or English, pay with KHQR, and the ticket appears on the kitchen screen live. Try the demo.

Guests scan the QR code on their table, order in Khmer or English and pay with KHQR. The ticket shows up on the kitchen screen a second later, and the guest sees when it’s ready.

## Orders by hand cost time and get mixed up

Most cafés in Phnom Penh still take orders by hand. Staff walk between tables, write the order down and carry it to the bar. It takes time, and options like size, ice and sugar get mixed up.

Guests then queue at the counter to pay. A printed menu can’t change a price or hide a sold-out item, so staff have to explain it at every table.

## From scan to kitchen in one flow

- **QR menu per table**: In Khmer and English. The table number comes with the scan.
- **Options with exact prices**: Size, ice and sugar, priced the way the shop sets them.
- **Pay first with KHQR**: The order reaches the kitchen only after it’s paid.
- **Live kitchen board**: New, Preparing, Ready. The guest’s phone updates too.
- **No app to install**: Works in the browser on any phone.
- **Ready for reports**: Every order is stored, ready for a sales dashboard.

## How it’s built

- Built with Next.js and React, so the menu loads fast on any phone and the kitchen screen runs in any browser.
- Orders reach the kitchen over Server-Sent Events, so the board and the guest’s phone update without a refresh.
- The server checks every price again before it takes payment. The phone never decides what an order costs.
- Payment is by KHQR. In the demo it’s simulated and no money moves.

Stack: Next.js, React, Server-Sent Events, KHQR.
