of the restaurant, China Gourmet \u2013 http:\/\/www.chinagourmetnj.com\/"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Since I reviewed a French gourmet restaurant previously, I thought it was best to evaluate a Chinese gourmet eatery.\u00a0 Also, since Delicieux is up, live, and running, it was nice to visually compare each of the sites side by side in comparison.\u00a0 So, here is my final and last review of the, China Gourmet:<\/p>\n<p>Located in West Orange, NJ, the China Gourmet goes that extra mile on design and interaction.\u00a0 A few positives that the website has is its layout, jquery, and online ordering feature.\u00a0 One distinct flaw that the website unfortunately has its overuse of various fonts.<\/p>\n<p>POSITIVES<\/p>\n<p>Layout \u2013 The boxy design is organized, yet, well controlled.\u00a0 With everything maintained inside the main red box, it gives the website consistency, as well as organization.\u00a0 It also gives the viewer a chance to thoroughly enjoy the artistic details that surround the main box, including the Chinese dragons, chopsticks, glowing lantern, and textured backgrounds.<\/p>\n<p>Jquery \u2013 The entire website contains a ton of jquery.\u00a0 From the loading page, to the navigation buttons, to the content, jquery plays a huge role in this site.\u00a0 It honestly pushes the envelope.\u00a0 For example, whenever the viewer clicks on the \u201cAbout Us\u201d page, whatever content was inside the main box disappears, and then the new content slides down from top to bottom transitionally.\u00a0 This feature is visually appealing, while pushing the limits.\u00a0 It is almost as if the web designer went as far as he\/she could go without it being annoying or burdensome.<\/p>\n<p>Online Ordering \u2013 This restaurant contains something different compared to the other sites that have been reviewed.\u00a0 They feature an online ordering system.\u00a0 When clicking on the \u201cOnline Order\u201d tab, the site directs you to some information, where you can then click on a link to place your order.\u00a0 When redirected, the site gives the viewer prices of all their dishes with an \u201cadd to cart\u201d button, where your total will begin to add up.\u00a0 This feature is something very unique, which gives the restaurant the opportunity to stay within the current technological times.<\/p>\n<p>NEGATIVES<\/p>\n<p>Font \u2013 As far as fonts, there are simply too many going on at once.\u00a0 For example, the main title, located at the very top of the page.\u00a0 This font is very artsy and appropriate, however the glow makes it extremely hard to read.\u00a0 Also, when going through the site in its entirety (through sub-sites and main-sites), the number of fonts turned out to be somewhere around seven.\u00a0 Seven different fonts are a bit extreme and overpowering.\u00a0 The site would be visually more successful with around two or three.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since I reviewed a French gourmet restaurant previously, I thought it was best to evaluate a Chinese gourmet eatery.\u00a0 Also, since
