Advice from the pros wherever you are: the Find. Eat. Drink. app
“The advice, some of it very passionate, doesn’t come from Joe Blow but from the likes of Alex Day, of Proprietors LLC and Death & Co., or Ana Sortun, chef-owner of Oleana near Boston.”
“When in doubt, ask the local experts. For Robin Dorian and Nick Bumstead, that means turning to chefs, mixologists, and artisans for their best addresses around the world.”

An App For People Who Want Actual Restaurants
“It’s incredibly effective... where I live there’s a fairly reliable list of middle-of-the-road places that appear on every single travel guide because they’re either cheap or tourist friendly, and this app didn’t feature a single one. So, if you’re looking for a place worth eating at, this will fit the bill.”
“A great source of advice on where to eat from chefs and other restaurant professionals around the country.... It’s almost as good as calling up the chef and asking him or her yourself just where to eat in their town.”

Find. Eat. Drink. The iPhone App has ARRIVED! (and it's free!!)
“For me, traveling is always a great opportunity for, well, eating... But where to go for the best of the best? Guide books seem so 1980. Wouldn’t it be nice to chat up Eric Ripert to find out where he goes for croissants in Paris? Or to check in with PDT bartender Jim Meehan to find out where he drinks in Los Angeles? Or find out where Mugaritz's Andoni Luis Aduriz likes to eat tapas?”
App Recommends Chefs' Favorite Hotspots
“Picking a place to eat in New York City can be so overwhelming that sometimes slickers want a solid recommendation from a trustworthy food industry professional - by doing little more than touching their phone screen, of course. A new iPhone app called Find. Eat. Drink. is the answer to that prayer.”
“Unlike the majority of food apps, Find. Eat. Drink. is actually curated by people who know a thing or two. Instead of angry customers who didn’t get the extra bacon they asked for, Find. Eat. Drink. is run by chefs, bartenders, and sommeliers. With it, you can start finding all those spots that even those in the business love.”

“Nobody knows the culinary world quite like the culinary world. That’s why we prefer restaurant recommendations from legit foodies to ones from, say, our notoriously middlebrow cousin (sorry, Esther). That’s also why we love Find. Eat. Drink.”
“While many Web sites and apps devoted to dining rely on peer reviews and star ratings, a spate of new apps has eschewed this democratic approach, bypassing the masses for the experts: chefs themselves.”
