Well, let&rsquo;s visit that before we get into the technical details.</p> <h2 id="example-restaurants-and-made-to-order-meals" class="relative group">Example: Restaurants and made to order meals <span class="absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 -start-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100"><a class="group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700" style="text-decoration-line: none !important;" href="#example-restaurants-and-made-to-order-meals" aria-label="Anchor">#</a></span></h2><p>Ever used a menu at a restaurant? Then, you&rsquo;ve used a Service Catalog, conceptually, before!</p> <p>Restaurants have a generalized workflow.</p> <ol> <li>Customers are seated</li> <li>Wait-staff takes customers&rsquo; order</li> <li>Wait-staff passes customer order to the Kitchen-staff</li> <li>Kitchen-staff prioritizes and cooks orders</li> <li>Kitchen-staff hands-off customer cooked meal to wait-staff</li> <li>Wait-staff delivers the order to the customer</li> </ol> <p>In this generalized workflow, we have both an internal and external use-case for a &ldquo;Service Catalog&rdquo; for the business.</p>
