The 'Uptaste' App Opens Up Access to Different Foods in a New City
Michael Hemsworth — September 17, 2017 — Tech
Foodie culture is showing little sign of slowing down, so the 'Uptaste' app is a new method for those who would ascribe to the title to find the best dishes when visiting a new city. The app works by letting users explore a curated selection of the best food that you'll find in a region along with real-time information regarding what's open and how far you are from the location. Users can also create personalized wishlist and even check off dishes or tastes that are on their list as they eat to let them feel accomplished as they dine while traveling.
The 'Uptaste' app also enables users to capture their reaction to new foods and post their review to let others know what they like, don't like and everywhere in between.
