Three Find Me Food app screens: a restaurant page showing halal and vegan information, the Discover screen with occasions and cuisines, and a map of restaurants in central London.

01 Overview

Find Me Food helps people discover halal restaurants in London without the usual research.

02 The problem

Finding a restaurant that’s halal — and knowing details such as vegan options or whether alcohol is served — usually means cross-checking reviews, social media and restaurant websites.

03 Who it’s for

People in London looking for halal food, whether for a quick bite, a family celebration or iftar during Ramadan.

04 My role

I designed and built the iOS app and the restaurant dataset behind it, and I’m now building a web version with a dashboard for managing restaurant data.

05 The solution

The app organises restaurants around how people actually plan a meal — by occasion and cuisine — with a map for exploring nearby options and clear information on each restaurant page.

  • Discover by occasion

    Shortcuts for Eid, Iftar, Birthday, Brunch and more, alongside cuisine filters.

  • Map and search

    Explore restaurants across London on a map, or search by name or area.

  • Useful restaurant pages

    Halal status, vegan options and whether alcohol is served, shown clearly.

  • Favourites

    Save restaurants to come back to later.

Find Me Food Discover screen on an iPhone, with occasion shortcuts for Eid, Iftar, Birthday and Brunch, cuisine filters, popular restaurants and favourites.
Browse by occasion — Eid, Iftar, Birthday, Brunch — or by cuisine.

06 Key decisions

  1. a.

    Occasion-led browsing

    Grouping by occasion reflects real decisions — where to go for iftar or a birthday — rather than a plain list.

  2. b.

    A curated dataset

    Restaurant information is gathered and structured into a consistent format, so every listing shows the same essential details.
