A good menu is your restaurant’s strongest advertisement. It’s your brochure, price-list, and call-to-action. But, menus are made of paper, they are static and costly to update. What if the menu knew who was looking at it, and their likes and dislikes? What if the menu could suggest dishes that match the customers taste? What opportunities would this create? And that is why today we are launching, Mizu for Business.

Getting started with Mizu for Business is simple

1) Create a verified profile for your business With Mizu, your business will receive a socially connected (Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook), verified and information dense profile on Mizu. This will enable Mizu users to view your opening hours, call, or get directions to your business. It’s all connecting! Sign up for free now.

2) Add one or multiple menus Once registered, add your menu to Mizu using Mizu Manager, we’ve worked hard to make this as straight-forward as possible.

Your menu is now targeted to each customers tastes and diet. Get your business on Mizu today.

Hey there!

Mizu is a new way to browse restaurant menus. By answering a few simple questions about your taste, Mizu can make accurate dish recommendations when you browse a restaurant’s menu in the Mizu app. To explain this a little more, we made a short animated video to show how it all works.

We’re very excited to launch the first version of Mizu today, which is free on the App Store. Mizu is a new kind of restaurant menu which understands what you like, and recommends dishes to match your taste and diet.

When we began designing Mizu, we did so from the perspective that we all have different tastes, diets and food allergies, yet when we visit a restaurant we’re all presented with the exact same menu. We believe there’s an opportunity to improve this, and today is our first step along the way.

Some of the problems we are trying to solve with this version:

1. “Which dish should I order?”

Taste is powerful thing, but so are dietary intolerances, and especially how the two relate. With Mizu, we set out to align taste and dietary requirements to surface the best items for you on any menu.

2. “I wish I could see photos of what I’m about to order.”

A picture speaks a thousand words, and this couldn’t be more true for food. We believe being able to see good photos of dishes is a game-changer.

3. “I wonder what others thought of this dish.”

Tap any menu item to read or write a micro-review. These reviews aren’t generalised reviews of the restaurant but rather exactly about the item you’re looking at. Comments can include photos. You can also “Like” any dish on the menu, this gives you a quick sense of the popularity of a dish, but It also helps Mizu understand what you like, and better suggest dishes in the future.

We look forward to seeing your comments & photos, and hearing your feedback on our app. We’re all ears at [email protected]. You can also contact us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

“Selected By Mizu” is a feature in the Mizu application which recommends dishes to you based on your taste and diet. “Selected By Mizu” is also the name of our new blog series wherein we share our favourite restaurants and dishes on the Mizu network.

This week we visited The Lovely Food Company in Terenure for some brunch. It was midweek so the atmosphere was calm and relaxing, a little less bustle than a weekend brunch. A good time to go if you’ve got a baby or toddler. After taking a seat by the window, we opened Mizu to see what The Lovely Food Company had to offer. The Weekday Brunch menu (available 8:30am – 12pm) caught my eye. It’s a super simple but well-designed menu, with a wide range of egg styles, french toasts, fruit salads, granolas, and more. You can tell they’ve prioritised quality over quantity – almost always a good sign in any restaurant. Kudos.

Mizu suggested that I try The French Toast with Maple Syrup and Irish Bacon, so I substituted the bacon for eggs (as pictured above). I wasn’t disappointed, Yum! The french toast is made with a soft, fresh brioche – lightly crispy on the outside, soft and moist (but not wet!) on the inside. Perfectly done. The scrambled eggs were golden, generously portioned and cooked to perfection. Brunch is a special kind of meal, it should be tasty, simple, reliable and most of all, relaxing. There’s an art to a good brunch, and these guys have nailed it. The staff were friendly, upbeat, and welcoming. Best brunch in Dublin? Yes!

We are hard at work building Mizu. Mizu is a smart restaurant menu that recommends dishes to match your taste and diet, and it’s coming to iPhone: Sign up now, and... one if you really want to be sweet...
