One of my favorite iPhone apps of all time is the Urban Spoon. It works where you shake your iPhone, of course, and it allows you to have a different restaurant selection in your neighborhood pop up for you, depending on what kind of food you are looking for. It gets even better than that because it looks kind of like a Las Vegas slot machine, so you have the ability to lock certain components of the app to give you a different outcome. For instance, if you wanted a specific neighborhood in your city, then you could lock that neighborhood, and then shake the application so that you will have a different choice for the type of food and restaurant pop up.
Otherwise, you can lock the price range, depending if you want a cheaper or more expensive restaurant, and you can also lock down what type of food you want. This is totally perfect for those times when you are thinking, “Hmm.. I wish I knew of a good sushi restaurant in my neighborhood…” This is exactly what this application is for because it will allow you to lock down a Japanese food choice, and then shake your iPhone, and see what you get!
