Nosh Redefines the Social Dining Experience

Nosh launches first app empowering people to share menu-specific food recommendations with their friends.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Nosh (http://www.nosh.me), a free iPhone and Android app that allows users to rate, review, and share photos of menu items with friends and followers across social networks, officially launches for foodies everywhere. Nosh takes dining recommendations to the next level by shifting the review from an entire restaurant to the actual menu items. Nosh users can see what the most popular items on the menu are through reviews and photos, and find "what's good here" and which dishes to avoid.

With Nosh the entire food review experience is now simple and fun by helping people easily find and follow their friends and food critics alike, for a fuller social dining experience, even when dining alone. People can easily share their experience on Nosh, as well as with friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter.

Once a diner has decided what to have, Nosh makes it easy for them to rate, review and share that experience with all their friends and future diners. No longer restricted to reviewing just a restaurant, diners now "nosh" an item by rating the dish on a scale of 1 to 5 stars, uploading a photo and writing a review on the phone (which can be updated on the Nosh.me website). Nosh has a growing database of more than 150,000 menus and over 10 million menu items.

With the large - and growing -  database of menus, Nosh simplifies the process of recommending and discovering new menu items.  Nosh's focus is to deliver a sleek and easy way for people to navigate the culinary world, and bring their friends with them. 

"Stepping into a restaurant today or 50 years ago is essentially the same experience for a diner.  You're shown to a table, handed a menu and have only the waiter to turn to for advice.  With Nosh, users can see what other diners have rated as good or bad, what their friends have had, read menu item reviews and even see pictures before making their choice," said Craig Walker, CEO and founder of Firespotter Labs, the makers of Nosh. "Nosh brings the dining experience into the 21st century, and relies on friends and other diners for advice, rather than just the waiter."

Nosh is the first product from Firespotter Labs. Nosh can be found at http://www.nosh.me  and is open for users to sign up, find friends to follow and view their friends' "noshes".  Nosh also tracks statistics to see how many items they've had and where, and how they compare to the rest of their friends on Nosh.
