Are you addicted to taking photos of your food before you eat, post online immediately for all your friends to see? Well then you may enjoy the app Foodspotting for iPhone, Android, and soon Blackberry. Foodspotting is a social media food app that let’s you post photos to Foodspotting.com and helps you find places to eat by photos. I’m sure you all have seen a food photo that has made you drool and sparked that craving to go to that restaurant and eat. The Foodspotting app helps you find the food you want by your current location or by searching for food. You can browse through the food photos and see information on where it is from and what type of food it is. A very useful app to find food when you are looking to try something new in your city or when you are traveling out of town.

This Friday May 6, 2011 at 730pm, Droolius will be co-hosting the First ever Foodspotting Eat-Up in Orlando at Hawkers Asian Street Fare. Its a time to gather with all of the Orlando Foodspotters for the first time, at a restaurant with bite size plates, great for photos. It is an Asian restaurant that features “tapas style” plates that are fun to take photos and share. You can check out their menu at http://www.facebook.com/hawkersstreetfare

You can see the photos I have uploaded here and the app is very easy to use. You take a photo, upload it, type in the place the food is from and what the food item is. That way people can see your photo and it helps them in finding great food by viewing your awesome photo.
If you are interested in the event, please RSVP at Meetup.com – http://www.meetup.com/Foodspotting/Orlando-FL/99813/
Here’s a few photos that I took with my Digital SLR camera for you all to see the type of food Hawkers serves. It is authentic Asian food from various regions of Asia. A great way to sample different flavors of the Far East at one location. All the following items are really good and I enjoyed all the flavors. Great thing here is that you can order a few items and everyone shares the food…
