  7. The next page will allow you to enter various settings for the category:
    1. Name: What the category will be called in your menu.
    2. Is Alcohol: Marking this toggle will present a qualifier questions to users asking if they are 21 or older before allowing them to order.
    3. Description: A brief run-through of the category, including days/hours of availability, location that it's available, etc.
    4. SEO Keyword: If you would like your menu to be searchable in Google and other search engines, enter keywords here.
