Urbanspoon for Blackberry: Find Restaurants In Unknown Cities With Your Blackberry and Urbanspoon
A couple of weeks ago while on vacation, I got to an unknown city (Austin, TX). I was looking into having dinner in a nice restaurant, but since I didn’t know any, I had no clue where to go! I opened Google Maps and started searching restaurants, I eventually found one, but Google Maps is not the best app to find a great restaurant. I then got home and searched what app could help in this situations, and I found a great one! Urbanspoon specializes in mobile apps that allow to find any type of restaurant. It automatically gets your locations and shows you nearby restaurants. Is a brilliant app. You have 3 criteria, city, type and price. So for example, if you want a real fancy and expensive restaurant, you lock the high price and shake the phone. Urbanspoon will show you expensive restaurants nearby, if you want really cheap, just select prize and shake the Storm, Urbanspoon will show you really cheap restaurants in the area. You can also choose type, nationality, coffee, donuts, deserts, steak, seafood etc…
Urbanspoon is a great app. Is free, has an amazing User Interface and works pretty well. To get urbanspoon head here: LINK

Keep in mind, this is really only good for Storm 1. I pulled it down for Storm 2 last month and it doesn’t work at all and I haven’t seen an update from appworld.
