How do you discover great local food when you're in a new area?

One thing I've noticed is that discovering great local food is still surprisingly difficult.

When I'm somewhere new, I usually end up:

• Searching Google Maps

• Checking Instagram or TikTok

• Asking friends or locals

• Walking around hoping to find something good

Even then, I often miss amazing local food vendors that don't have a strong online presence.

That's one of the reasons I started building ChopSpot, to make discovering nearby local food simpler for both customers and vendors.

I'm curious:

How do you usually find good local food when you're exploring a new city or neighborhood?

• Google Maps?

• Social media?

• Food blogs?

• Word of mouth?

• Something else?

I'd love to hear what works for you, and what frustrations you still have. Your experiences could help shape how we continue improving ChopSpot.
