Task 5: Restaurant Location, Vendor Source, and Cutoff Logic

[akisma]

Priority: P2 - Medium
Estimate: 6 days
Dependencies: #60

Product Acceptance Criteria (Customer Value)

User Story: As a manager, I want the system to understand our restaurant location and apply preferred vendor sources and cutoff times for ordering, so that order timing and vendor selection is location-specific and accurate.

Note: this is NOT geolocation - this is USER DEFINED locations, just a name, basically.

Acceptance Scenarios:

• Location-based Vendor Logic:
  Given the restaurant location is set,
  When I create a shopping list,
  Then the system uses location to suggest preferred vendors and cutoff times.
• Cutoff Awareness:
  Given a preferred vendor with cutoff time,
  When an order is created,
  Then the system warns if cutoff is approaching or missed.
