Why I love Google Maps

Best thing about being local guide is being able to do a review on google maps. And what I loveeee to share is about food. Well, most of my review on google maps is about food. Having a family and a full time job we eat out a lot. So google maps review is my best friend. Where do I go today? Can’t be going back to the same place everyday. I want to know if the food good. It is cheap? Is it easy to get there? to find parking?

The reviews on Google Maps are very useful especially when the place is new. Like recently we went to this new dimsum place called Dodo Dim Sum & Bowls. It has a good review on google maps. We tried and its good!!

I’m thinking other people must be looking for the same too. So one day when google maps notification popped out on my phone asking to leave review, I did! And now I cannot stop! I will try my best to put a review that i hope will be able to help people. People like me, who wants to go to a good place that worth spending on and etc. Take more pictures and now i started posting videos, which is awesome. Especially when it comes to menu.

I hope that my reviews will be useful for other people as other reviews has been very useful for me. :slight_smile:
