Eating is one of those activities that can be quite enjoyable and satisfying. And since you need to eat anyway, you might as well enjoy the experience. A number of iPhone apps make eating and dining out a more thrilling and fulfilling deed. From helping you pick restaurants to helping you pick what to eat, here are some of the top iPhone apps for foodies and everyone else:
Snooth Wine
Not everyone has an extensive knowledge of wine. This iPhone application remedies that as it lists wine information, from traits to prices, and even nearby stores where you can get it.
Yelp
This often cited iPhone application deserves all the attention it is getting. Yelp allows you to view user reviews of restaurants within the vicinity. Of course, you can also post your own reviews as well. This is a perfect resource to check for those days you do not know where to eat and don’t want to risk picking an awful restaurant.
Check Please-Tip Calculator
Just like the name describes, this useful application helps you compute the percentage tip you want to leave. It also helps with the sometimes tedious task of splitting up the tip, according to how many people you are dining with.
Urbanspoon
A more condensed version of Yelp, Urbanspoon is a city-based restaurant locator. It also has some reviews and for some restaurants it allows you to make reservations through the app.
Restaurant Nutrition
Are you conscious of what you are eating? This iPhone application lists nutritional facts for the common food items found in popular food establishments.
Global Eater Food Dictionary
Eating in an international cuisine restaurant and not exactly sure what a menu item means? This app can solve your problem and save you from eating some “delicacy” you’re not ready for.
VegOut- Vegetarian Restaurant Guide
At times, it’s not easy to find restaurants that are vegetarian-friendly, what’s more pure vegan establishments. This iPhone application is the answer to that dilemma. It even allows you to search for different types of restaurants (vegetarian, vegan-only, etc). Establishments are star-rated, but the actual reviews cannot be seen through the app.
Menus for iPhone
Not sure what you want to eat? This app lists all the food items available in a particular restaurant. In short, it gives you access to a restaurant’s menu even before you enter the establishment.
OpenTable
This is the best iPhone application available for making restaurant reservations. It has a very wide list of restaurants under its service, and members of the OpenTable website can even earn points by making reservations and dining at these restaurants.
BigOven and Allrecipes
Eating in? These two iPhone applications can definitely cover you. From crowd pleasing recipes to pretty much anything you need to know in the kitchen, either of these apps can be your complete kitchen guide.
