PLEASE NOTICE: OUR BLOG IS CURRENTLY ONLY FEATURING STORIES FROM STATEN ISLAND, WE WILL LAUNCH BROOKLYN BLOG ALSO IN THE COMING MONTHS, AFTER WE HAVE FULLY UPDATED AND ADDED PHOTOS TO THE DIRECTORY PORTION.

Well congratulations to our development team for finally getting the new site design, Brooklyn launched and a few great upgrades up online. 

Yes there are still Many Many Errors running this website, we are using a much more complex code, but the bugs are in the process of being worked out as we speak.  The maps on the front city page currently not working, please use the advance search (We have moved this up to the top, for now until the map begins to work). 

OK about the new site upload, switching cities can be done by using the “Change City” button located on top left corner.  The Review System has been a bit upgraded, and the best part of the upgrade is we have Brooklyn Restaurant Menus and are connecting them as we read and write.  All Brooklyn Restaurants (About 2200 Restaurants) will be up, live and running by August 15th, 2009.  Photo collector has begun taking photos and estimates about 2 Months Completion Time. 

Hopefully by the end of this year, our Happy 2009, Brooklyn and Staten Island will be fully running including the blogs and menu updates with upgrades coming to the website.  Please notice, our website development is on-going and we are always improving our system, Since we first launched the website in 2006 as a Sample/test site with a single menu, web development has begun. Till this day almost 3 years later, we are still improving our system.  Whereyoueat Media understands that the website is the “Storefront”, we try to keep our store always clean, simple and easy to navigate yet always thinking of some new features to make our “Shoppers” happy. 

Please enjoy the website and send us suggestions using the contact us box or just mail to Support@Whereyoueat.com and till the next big news hits, Enjoy your food…

Website Design Changes and Apology for Delay of Brooklyn Launch

Filed under -Featured, -Site News

Dear Staten Island and Brooklyn Residence, Our Designers and Web Developers have been working non-stop in the past few weeks making a few design changes on our website and getting ready for the launch.  The Brooklyn Restaurant Menu and Photos Data information is already inside the Database.  The only problem is the design issues we have been having lately and wanting to upgrade the way our site looks and the way it works.  Please be patient and hopefully early next week we will be able to make it live. 

The following Technical upgrades have been added to the website during this upgrade process:

  • Advanced Search: Now displays only what is available within a certain city, So you do not have to select a cuisine or special feature to only realize that “No Restaurants Founds”.
  • Narrow Search: Works the same, only displays what other searches are available within the search you have searched.
  • Improving Coupon System: We will next month begin offering a Powerful Ultra Enhanced “Special Discounts Inside” listings for restaurants, our coupon system will be easier to see and will work with a “Press to Print” button to make the process even simpler. 
  • We will also begin taking ads from local business (Other than restaurants).  Local Plumbing, Barber Shops, Hair Saloon’s, Bridal Party Shops, Discount Stores and all others will soon be able to advertise directly on the Menu Pages on a Impression Basis.  For our visitors, we will try to have many coupons from local shops which will be able to target and advertise on restaurants in a certain Zip code, Island Wide and Even Multiple Cities.

The following Design Changes have been created for a smoother looking and simpler website. (Like it wasn’t simple enough already)

  • The Front Page (Select Your City), looks a lot more prettier and tastier than the previous version.  The Advanced Search works with One Select, instead of Click, Select and Search.
  • The Restaurant Listings Page has remained similar look but added a more creative looking “Narrow Search” that also works with a single drop and click. We have also upgraded the Featured Listing portion to be able to deliver even more results to our advertisers.
  • Saving the Best for Last: The Actual Menu Page.  The menu page is now a lot Easier to Read, Cleaner to Feel, Upgraded our Review Script, Added Gallery Thumbnails (So you can see all restaurant photos thumbnails without having to click through) Although selecting a photo will enlarge the photo, you can now change photos withing having to minimize each photo first.  The coupons on many restaurants now stand out greatly and a much cleaner look to where our local advertisers may go.  We have also upgraded many images on this page.
  • User Registration and My Account panel is now easier to use than ever before.  Simply Register for an Account, When browsing for menus you can add them to “My Favorites”, select My Account and View (My Favorites, My Latest Reviews, Latest News and Restaurants Near You).
  • Next time you visit our website, you will be auto-redirected to the city which you first have selected.  To switch a city, please look under our logo “Select a City” and simply click and press to change cities.

Special Notes: We put lots of time and effort into making this website run, and greatly appreciate all the suggestions you send us and enjoy hearing the comments.  Please keep doing so as your support is what keeps us going.  Also please help report restaurants that are missing by using the “Report Missing Restaurant” button on the listings page. 
We hope you enjoy our upgrades and wish you the very best dining experience tonight and hope we were of help to you.
