OpenRice

OpenRice is an app that helps you find the best restaurants in the following Asian countries: Hong Kong, China, Macao, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, and Malaysia. The app is also available in six different languages including English, which makes it one of the best ways to find a good restaurant in any of the countries listed above.

In order to use OpenRice, you don't need to sign up for an account. You can take a look at all the restaurants included on this app with nothing more than a guest account, although you can't make reservations or payments from the app itself in this way. Regardless, creating an account is very easy. You can do so by signing up with your Facebook account or with a Google account. However, you'll also need an active phone number from one of the Asian countries in which the app operates.

In OpenRice, you'll find a lot of information about the different restaurants and types of cuisine found in Japan, China, and Thailand. You'll also have the latest gastronomic news from all these regions at your disposal, including trendy dishes, new restaurant openings, announcements from famous chefs, and so on. Best of all, you can filter this information to read only about the regions you're interested in.

Reserving a table on the app is also very easy. All you have to do is choose the restaurant you want to go to, select the date and time you want to eat, select the number of diners, and that's it. All this from the app itself. It's important to note, however, that some restaurants request additional confirmation by phone, but if that's the case, the app will let you know right away.

Once you've finished dining, OpenRice offers a handy way to pay directly from the app itself. In short, you can use the built-in QR code reader to pay for your meal. This way, you don't need to carry cash, cards, or anything like that.

OpenRice is a very useful app for anyone living in or visiting the countries listed in the first paragraph; with it, you can find the best restaurants in each region in a quick and easy way. You can even reserve tables and pay from the app itself.
