DaFanQu (打饭去), a wiki for cuisine and entertainment places, which is different from 大众点评, provides users with convenient information and extraordinary services as soon as they become members of this “Entertainment Wiki” community.

大众点评 is more like a yellow page service, while DaFanQu (DFQ) is focused on the keywords “Wiki”, “Interaction”, “Community”, and “Social Networking”. In addition to web-based information, DFQ also provides mobile apps to gather real-time information on live crowd maps and feeds nearby the current location.

DaFanQu is not just an information booth, but rather aimed to establish an entertainment network for all those users with similar interests (like 豆瓣), and present them with their own community group as if they are part of the system.

For the functionalities of the wiki, DFQ is not just providing information, but also collecting user preferences and ratings of those places they visited. Furthermore, the wiki should also allow users to establish their groups, and provide a description of such places they visited, in other words, this is a platform that encourages users to contribute and own a part of the community. Of course, achievements and rewards are available for the savvy users.

The reason behind this project is that China has an long history on food qualities. No doubt, there are too many decent cuisine choices around but just too hard to find or too easy to pass by. Our platform is intended to let everyone become a gastronome or just a know-all person.
