Eater App Turns Food Snobs Into Armchair Critiques with Emoji-Depth Notes
KEY POINTS
- •Eater debuted an app featuring detailed notes from editors highlighting exact dishes and unique atmospheres.
- •Reporters like Bettina and Hilary share favorite meals such as chicken liver with roti and spicy noodles.
- •The app also includes more venues and encourages users to leave their own specific dining insights.
In a world where ‘fun atmosphere’ simply won’t do, the Eater app invites you to wallow in minutiae like ‘John Waters-approved kitsch’ and ‘Japanese-Jewish bento experience.’ Senior reporter Bettina swears by chicken livers with roti, while deputy editor Hilary champions ‘spicy noods’ at a dimly lit LA haunt. Meanwhile, Chicago’s J.P. Graziano Grocery demands hellos to Jim and emphatic giardiniera slurping. Not to be outdone, Portland’s Nodoguro offers a six-course feast with sake flights to mystery locations in Japan. All this culinary data now bundled in an app that also lets you order food and book a ride—because digestion should never slow your Uber.
