If you are a Singaporean foodie, you would have heard about Burpple. Built in Singapore, Burpple is also known as the Instagram for food: users can download the app and easily use it to discover and share all food related content with the Burpple community.
As a new mobile app update, Burpple included a whole new feature: Burpple Hot 100, which showcases Singapore’s top hot spots over the past month. The Burpple Hot 100 is based on actual app and site activity data generated by over 200,000 locals in Singapore alone who use Burpple every month to discover and rediscover great places to eat and drink in the Red Dot.
“The “Burpple Hot 100” shows the hottest places in the city, a simple way to show off where the latest action is. Whether they are good, great or awesome, we leave it to your own tastebuds. Because, when it comes to eating, everyone’s an expert. We use an objective set of data including recent reviews, lists that have been created, views, and other relevant factors. Burpple users (we affectionately call them “burpplers”) are the ones who determine what’s hot by photographing what they eat, and writing all about it.” – Burpple
