Why restaurants?

With the amount of information residing on the internet, we realized that not everything should be packed in one place. Too many information from different item categories will only confuse individuals seeking for specific information.

That's why we decided to choose one thing to focus our directory on. We picked restaurants because it is thought to be more useful. People eat out everyday, and they may not know whether a particular place is good or not. In addition, people who doesn't go out that often may find our site useful in finding new dining places they have never visited outside their neighbourhood. What's better way to dine out than to know in advance where they are going to?

On the other hand, restaurant owners often have difficulties promoting their newly-established places in the jungle of restaurants. With our listings, restaurateurs can choose how to tell our visitors about their restaurants. With the addition of visitor ratings and reviews, restaurateurs can also find out what their patrons are really looking for.

Why not something else?

We have plans to grow our online guide to include other things outside restaurants. If you have suggestions as to what you would like to see next, you are welcomed to send us your suggestions.

But, indeed: Why not?

Reviews are the comments and input from visitors on certain dining place or restaurant. We encourage our visitors to give reviews on places they have visited, so that we can get an honest feedback on how good or bad a restaurant is.

Our visitors can also rate and assign scores to a restaurant depending on how good a place is, using three categories: Food, service, and atmosphere/environment. The better a restaurant scores, the better their rating is.

Can I become a reviewer?

On each page of restaurant details, we have added a link where visitors can submit their own reviews for that particular restaurant. Visitors are welcomed to submit their reviews from those links.

If you are a food enthusiast who would like to become one of our featured reviewers or editors, please contact us with more details, and we will see if we have something in common.
