-Drink Pairing suggestion (helps sell more drinks and helps the customer decide)
-Separate Dessert menu (If on an app you could do a push notification at a time interval... like 45min to an hour after they last viewed the menu)

-Specials/discounts. An option to 'get specials' pushed to your phone from restaurants you pick

-Interactive menu. Again if in the app you could have a short clip from the chef describing the dish and showing the portion size (re-iterating the drink pairing as well to boost sales)

-Incentive to use the app. Check in at a certain location so many times and you get a free appetizer or dessert, something like that.

I like your ideas Cfox.

I like the interactive food menu. I'm thinking maybe really nice photographs that you can zoom into and have a full 360 view- what do you think?

I like the specials notification too. And the chef description sounds really good- what exactly are you thinking for this? I guess this could be cool for like specials or season items?

What's a food app? And why?

Lol you're smart. Technically there is no such thing as a "food app". I'm workin on an app that relates to the food industry at a consumer level. It helps restaurant goers decide what to order by allowing them to search and see an image of every item on the menu before they order. It also shows detailed info about the item like nutritional and allergy info.

Why? Because I believe its a problem when I go out to eat and I have no clue what the food that READS good on the menu actually looks like. Then I get it and I don't like it.
