I built FoodieLens because ordering food should not be a gamble

• MikeyLi 10mo ago
  Have you ever sat at a restaurant, staring at a menu with no pictures — maybe in a foreign language or full of fancy food jargon — and just hoped for the best? That happened to me more times than I care to admit. I’d spend 10 minutes Googling dish-names, trying to guess what I’ll actually get. By the time I order, I’m either disappointed or stuck with something I don’t want. That’s why I spent the last year building FoodieLens — a simple web app that turns any menu (local diner, dive bar, sushi joint, or ramen alley abroad) into a visually clear, easy-to-scan — and often translated — digital menu with real pictures of dishes. How it works in two taps Snap or upload a photo of a restaurant’s menu. Instantly get: Translated menu items (100+ languages) Real photos of dishes (or AI-generated ones when needed) Clean, organized view of menu items for quick scanning No more guessing. No more ordering something just because the name sounds “safe.” Who it’s for Travelers — exploring menus in new languages. Food explorers — trying unfamiliar cuisines or fancy restaurants. Anyone who got burned by ordering something weird just because of vague menu descriptions. Pricing without friction 10 free menu uploads — no credit card required. Free translation & image search for unlimited menus. Paid plan only if you want heavy usage or AI-generation tokens. If you hate ordering blind — whether at home or abroad — give FoodieLens a try: foodielens.app
