#2Looks very nice, and congrats on finishing your side project!
Could you please give some details about project implementation? like:
- what technologies were you using (front/back-end)
- and how long did it take to finish the project

#3It would be very nice to get some feedback

#4Well done on deploying your side project. Looks shiny.
+ The quality of the pictures really pay off, how did you get access to such good quality photoes?
- The descriptions are missing for some dishes. Maybe adding some ingridients would help?
- If I like a food I would like to know which resturant makes them well near me. You don't have that feature yet. That makes me think, what is the purpose of foodieadvice? Just national dishes?
- Most likely I as a tourist am looking for the food while touring, doesn't this make more sense to be a mobile app?
Qs:
* How are you planning to make money? Linking resturnats as an add to a dish would be the obvious way, have you thought of that?
* How come you went for cities/countries and not just country?

#5@grif-fin Thank you for your comments and feedbacks
- I got all pictures from free stock photo websites so far.
- We are trying to add description to all dishes. Also adding ingredients is on my plans.
- I will add feature to see best places to eat some food in next phase. It is coming soon.
- I will convert it to mobile app also but it is not priority at the moment. I am expecting users to find us from Google actually.
----------------
- Monetization:
- I am planning to build an api and make a monthly subscription for it.
- Advertisement also an option.
A: I will also suggest places to eat for specific foods in cities. So I build it in a way that I can link places to food. And also for some countries, there are differences between foods in cities. But for most of countries foods are same. This point is still in my mind. I believe for clear design it is good to separate

I am surprised you managed to find all of those quality pictures from free stock photo webs.
Just wondering, what sort of API do you think can get you monthly subscriptions?

https://www.pexels.com/ is especilly a great source.
After sharing this project on Twitter I got some feedbacks about requirement for api. I think if I will get more requests I will build an api and give access to it with monthly subscription.

#8Very nice. What is your tech stack? Is this on github? Have you thought of adding some mapping to this, maybe suggesting locations where these dishes can be found? I might could help you out with that if you had any interest. Good Job.

In next phase of project I am planning to start adding locations and allow users suggest best locations to eat foods in cities. It is very nice to hear people wants to contribute. I will let you know when location suggestion feature is ready. Thank you :)
