Minimum Index Sum of Two Lists Algorithm Javascript

Suppose Andy and Doris want to choose a restaurant for dinner, and they both have a list of favorite restaurants represented by unique strings.

You need to help them find out their common interest with the least list index sum. If there is a choice tie between answers, output all of them in alphabetical order. 

You could assume there always exists an answer.


Example 1:

Input: list1 = [Shogun, Tapioca Express, Burger King, KFC] , list2 = [Piatti, The Grill at Torrey Pines, Hungry Hunter Steakhouse, Shogun]

Output: [Shogun]

Explanation: The only restaurant they both like is "Shogun".
