case study · website for stone monkey
shanghai flavors, 100% vegan.
Stone Monkey is a family-run vegan Chinese kitchen in San Diego, cooking Shanghai family recipes since 2018. They serve at pop-ups, farmers markets and catered events now, so we rebuilt the site around the menu and catering, with nothing pointing at a storefront that closed.

straight from the wok.
Starters, sides and mains, each with a photo, a price and what goes in it. The family updates the menu themselves: new dishes get a badge, retired ones are hidden, not deleted. Try it.

catering
feed the whole office.
Catering is a big part of the business, so it gets its own page: every tray with its price, how many people it serves, and a request form that lands in the family’s inbox and admin.
A demo for this page, using their real tray prices (mains $80 quarter, $150 half; sides $50 and $80) with one side. On their site, customers send a catering request.
- 2 mains × 3 half trays$900
