    Local restaurants and eateries can help build a sense of shared community culture and
      identity through their food. NP Eats showcases the different types of cuisines offered in the
      town of New Paltz as an exclusive app for SUNY New Paltz students. Through interviews
      with owners and staff, I asked them for the history of their restaurant and what makes their
      restaurant unique from others.
      I created an app for students that helps them discover all the popular restaurants in New
      Paltz. This app aims to help eliminate the risk involved in trying a new restaurant without
      knowing anything about its cuisine or ambiance. The app utilizes features such as coupons,
      a leveling system and photo galleries to help keep students curious to try new restaurants
      in town.
