Eat great amazing food wherever you are with Foodspotting, an app built with the foodie traveller in mind (which is pretty much all of us).

 

Find great dishes wherever you are through user recommendations with Foodspotting, and it also lets you share your great finds with others, don’t be greedy.

The best way to describe this app is it’s like Instagram except limited to food, and it’s like restaurant reviews except you only review the particular dishes. The app lets you upload photos of dishes you feel are worth a mention. You can follow friends who are using the app, restaurants in your area, and even specific foods if you’ve got a major craving.

According to the app’s iTunes page, the benefits of the app are:

  • The app lets you upload photos of dishes you feel are worth a mention.
  • You can follow friends who are using the app, restaurants in your area, and specific foods such as burgers, fish tacos, or BBQ.
  • You can also follow other sources, including celebrity chefs such as Wolfgang Puck, the Travel Channel, and various city guides.

The visual aspect is a personal favourite, where you can browse dishes near your area. It’s like you get to window shop for food and see what you like best before purchasing. I do admit part of the fun of food hunting is finding that perfect meal that stands out from the myriad of substandard options, but let’s face it, there’s times you don’t want to take a gamble. Sometimes when you’re time poor or you just want good food when you travel.
