information for users to understand either

they want.

complete the “Check out”? Will they get
some special offers or discounts if they
login?

register or login.

Nevertheless, user can’t figure out how
many choices contained. They need to
slip the page until visit the end.

• Since number of items would be
changed frequently, display the number
of page is more appropriate. For
example, 1/6, 2/6.
Long-Term Recommendation:
• Consider using pull down menu with
different categories for easier browsing.

beverage.

• No need to use HK$42.0 as basis. It would
be better allowing user to choose what
they want before displaying the price.
