EveryScape Eats! Visual Dining Guide Debuts in Boston with Free iPhone App and Companion Website http://www.EveryScapeEats.com
New approach to local search offers 3D visual dining guide to showcase interiors of 500 Boston restaurants; Never again will Bostonians have to go on a blind date with a restaurant!
WALTHAM, Mass., June 14 -- EveryScape, creator of visual guides for local search, today announced the debut of a new approach to local search with EveryScape Eats!, a visual dining guide with a free iPhone application and companion website. Initially available in Boston, diners can peruse the most complete visual restaurant guide by viewing the interiors of more than 500 Boston restaurants and exploring exteriors of more than 1,300 in 3D with the free iPhone and iPad application or by visiting http://www.EveryScapeEats.com.
Leveraging the same experiential, high-quality visual content that EveryScape debuted earlier this month in conjunction with Microsoft Corp.'s Bing Maps, EveryScape Eats! Boston uses interior panoramic imagery to allow users to "walk around" as though they were there in person. This new approach to local restaurant search offers a complete solution to the "where to eat tonight?" conundrum and ensures that a dining selection matches the users' desired ambiance, cuisine, menu selection and price. Never again will Bostonians have to go on a blind date with their restaurant!
Boston is the debut market for EveryScape Eats!, which will become available in other cities nationwide on a rolling basis. In addition to the restaurant guide, EveryScape plans to introduce other vertical categories to its catalog of visual guides for local search as well as distribute this content to other local search portals. Additional EveryScape Eats! Boston features include:
-- Search for restaurants: Immediate visual thumbnails of more than 1,300
Boston area restaurants provide an idea of ambiance and neighborhood
-- Find other nearby restaurants using geolocation: Use iPhone GPS to
quickly find nearby restaurants and then narrow the selection based on
price or rating
-- Plan a night out: Select a restaurant and then share it with friends
through email or Facebook
-- Read reviews, menus and restaurant information: Panoramic images are
augmented by the restaurant details section so diners can make an
educated dining decision
"Local search is moving toward the experiential, which requires high-quality visual content, and a lot of it. EveryScape's approach has focused on leveraging a technology that makes a presence in our visual guides easily accessible for small businesses, and equally engaging for consumers," said Jim Schoonmaker, CEO of EveryScape. "This approach has been validated through our work with Bing Maps and we are excited to debut EveryScape Eats! in our home city of Boston, where we are featuring more restaurants than any other Boston app."
"EveryScape Eats! allows us to showcase more than our delicious food," said Mary-Catherine Deibel, co-owner of UpStairs on the Square in Cambridge, Mass. "We have a unique restaurant interior and fantastic ambiance that really comes to life for diners using EveryScape Eats!"
