What's for Dinner?
Are you going some place new for dinner?
I want to go somewhere new, but I'm a creature of habit. I'd rather avoid going to a new restaurant as I fear bad service, bad food, and a bad experience.
But I'd definitely try a new place if it was liked by my best friends. And I'd probably try recommendations from other people who enjoy the Lucky Garden Pan Mee or Yut Kee's Roti Babi.
The problem is most food websites today don't solve this problem easily. You've got to think of what you want to eat which is impossible on the road or when you're hungry. You read blog reviews and tell yourself to go over the weekend, but you end up going to the same old places.
That's why we're building OpenFeast.com. It's going to be the easiest and fastest way to discover relevant new places to eat in your area. Go to places that your friends have liked, and eat food that people with similar taste buds like to eat.
Want a taste of it now?
We want to launch OpenFeast.com in July, but we need help in testing it out. We're looking for at least 100 friends to be our first users.
Sign up for the beta today, and help us build the most relevant food recommendation engine (in the world?).

Thanks guys. Work in progress - hope it get's off the starting grid =)
Brill! Do I get to join? I can only recoomend a few places based on where I used to go often as well.
PS : I love how you intro yourself in OF -> Praveen wonders why is there so little chinese food in Bangsar. (Something that goes like that, I had to rack my brains due to the below)
PPS : OF gave me Page Load Error many times :(
