If you guys are interested in high-quality food products please let me know what you think of my website prototype. 1)Do you understand immediately what the site is about? 2)Is it easy enough to understand how it works? 3)If ready to roll in your neighborhood would you be interested in subscribing to a service like this? I am in the process of getting a closed-beta off the ground in Brooklyn and I am really interested in all kinds of feedback about the idea, the design, UX. Thanks. http://www.the-local-kitchen.com

EatFoodNow▲12I got sick of seeing bad restaurant websites and building websites manually, so I automated it. How it works, take a picture of your menu and EatFoodNow sends the image to Gemini to extract the data and structure it to fit a clean website design. Each restaurant is hosted as a subdomain in a Next.JS multi-tenant environment. I've made the process as frictionless as possible so a user gets to see their preview website before signing up. I think supervision is important so after generation everything is editable in a way that looks as close as possible to the final output. I've also integrated…

A few years ago I wrote a crawler to fetch all NYC menus. I wanted to prove that many specific dishes can't be found in NYC restaurants. After more than two years that I had forgotten about the project I decided to clean it up, deal with the css, and put it online. The number of interesting dishes that can be found is actually quite surprising. The backend is written using nodejs without any framework (no db, just a bunch of in memory DS) and vanilla js/html/css for the frontend.

I found the official website https://www.nyctourism.com/restaurant-week slow and tedious to navigate, so I hacked together a fast, filterable map to showcase the participating NYC restaurants during Restaurant Week. It's in pure HTML, CSS, and JS, and it uses Leaflet for mapping and a utility JS file for the searchable multi-select input. If you're interested, check out the unminified source code by right-clicking and selecting "view source". The full source is available here: https://github.com/Blue9/restaurant-week.

Today we've launched happytables ( http://www.happytables.com ), a squarespace / wordpress.com for restaurants. I had posted on HN before about a previous iteration we performed ( http://bit.ly/sn0FWc ), and am really satisfied how far we've gotten with it all. The entire solution is built on top of WordPress, it's allowed us to quickly prototype and build various components. It'll be interesting to see if other solutions pop-up for unrelated niche markets using WordPress too (i.e. real estate, sports clubs, etc.). Would love to hear your feedback on our concept and would gladly answer any…
