Letterboxd but for restaurants.
Google Maps focuses on ratings and reviews. It’s good for knowing Wilson Carpark is a definite avoid, but it’s unhelpful for finding the next Sharon Kwan Catering.

User recommendation lists are better for finding new places.
Therefore we focus on user lists and abandon ratings.
Tightly integrate with openstreetmaps POIs.
