It’s happened to everyone–the terrible fallout from eating at that unfamiliar restaurant with the spoons that were a little too greasy, or the chicken that was served a little too rare.
Max Stoller obviously knows the feeling.
To understand how the app works, one needs a little background.
In New York City, the health inspector grades restaurants on a golf-style points scale, where less is better.
More than 28 points will land the restaurant on a flagged list that triggers frequent inspections, or even a shut-down, if the score does not go down.
Stoller’s app, donteat.at, parses the weekly-updated public data set for those flagged establishments and keeps an updated list of violators.
From then on, if a donteat.at user ever checks in via Foursquare to a restaurant that has been flagged, they receive a text message alerting them to that fact.

Don't want to TALK to your Restaurant Waiter? There's and APP for that

Restaurant-Ordering Apps
There’s no need to communicate with the restaurant’s waiter anymore, as the Storific iPhone App lets customers place their food orders with their smartphone.
This foodie app enables users to check into a restaurant using a table-specific code which the waiter drops off when you’re being sat. This will probably be the last time you see the server, as you can then browse through the menu and send your order to the kitchen. Digitize your dining experience with the Storific iPhone App.
