ChineseFoodMap is covered by National Public Radio this morning:
“But what if your neighborhood is the entire country? That was the problem for Brian, who splits his time between Los Angeles and the Bay Area. Brian is like a lot of Chinese immigrants who don’t cook — they comprise a large market of people nationwide who want a little taste of home.
That’s how ChineseFoodMap.com was born — an entirely Chinese-language site with reviews plotted in major metro areas around the country, including Houston, Seattle and Atlanta. But chances are, your favorite local Chinese restaurant isn’t on the list.
“The Chinese restaurant for Chinese here and the Chinese restaurant for non-Chinese is kind of totally different. That’s why Chinese people need a Web site for themselves!” Brian says.
If you can’t read Chinese and you feel like you’re missing out on the good stuff, fear not. Brian wants to help his favorite Chinese restaurants get new non-Chinese customers. He plans to complete an English version of the site by the end of the summer.”
Thanks to Cyrus Farivar for his report.
