Restaurant-first discovery

The game plan

Your eyes order.
Your gut guesses.

We’re building a daily, five-round challenge for food lovers with strong opinions about the bill. Here’s what’s on the menu.

In development · Practice preview below

  1. 01

    Look at the whole spread.

    Real restaurant meals, beautiful photos and enough detail to make an educated guess. Not just the price of a single plate.

  2. 02

    Put a number on it.

    Guess the total check across five rounds. The closer your guesses, the better your score. Fancy plating can be very persuasive.

  3. 03

    Settle it with your friends.

    Get a shareable result and challenge someone to beat it. Discover the restaurants behind the meals along the way.

A warm-up for your wallet radar

Dinner for two.
What’s your guess?

Two starters, two mains, one shared dessert and two cocktails. Pick a total in your head, then open the check.
