Hi everyone! My friends and I made a Yelp app for China called Spoonhunt. It is currently only available within WeChat app "store", search "spoonhunt" in WeChat to find it, and press "follow" to download it into your wechat.

 

Our goal is to fill in gaps in information when international students/ expats dine out.

 

The key features (Click "GO" button inside Spoonhunt WeChat app to start):

1. search for restaurants around you (currently 100k restaurants in Shanghai covered, our data comes from local websites)

2. See their menu in english (menu from an online source, most will have ~20 top recommended products)

3. Choose what you want & translate your special requests for the waiter (ie. I don't want garlic)

 

We are also looking to incorporate coupons/ groupons soon, since there are actually tons of great deals around for locals but the international population rarely miss out on it.

Also planning to add French, Spanish, German translations.

 

If anyone is looking to interact more with locals, restaurant waiters who know zero english are a good way to start  :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:  :mrgreen:

And of course, free to PM me if you have feedback on how to improve it!!
