Getting Around |
 |
We have scattered some help functions here and there in Foodlane to help you
use the site more effectively.
Generally, if you need help for the meaning of some icons, try placing your mouse
over it! For search fields, there are help icons beside most of the fields in
the Advanced Search! (They are little square boxes with a question mark in it.)

|
Finding Food |
Use Advanced Search or Find Food to locate eateries!
If you are unsure of the spelling
like 'kway chap' or 'kueh chap', use the search box at the top right corner of the page.
It will provide some spelling suggestions for local slang as well as prompt you for what you
want to search for!

Bookmarking Favorites (for Foodlaners only) |
 |
If you find your favorite eatery or an eatery that you would want to visit someday, bookmark
it by clicking on "Add to Favorites". You can then access them through [My Foodlane -> My Favorites]
after logging on to the site. Favorites are shared among Foodlaners and you may find
fellow Foodlaners who share similar favorites as you through [My Foodlane -> Look for Friends -> Suggest]!

Writing Food Reviews (for Foodlaners only) |
|
We can't possibly try all the food in Singapore, but if everybody pens a line or two
for the dishes that they have tried, we'll be able to find the good food in Singapore
faster! Don't simply read food reviews, write them! Every Foodlaner would appreciate that!
Watch your rank (all new Foodlaners start from "Look-See") promote as you start contributing to fellow Foodlaners!

|
Foodlane Community & Groups (for Foodlaners only) |
Invite your family and friends to the Foodlane community! A place where you
can exchange messages, share favorites, recommend eateries as well as meet new friends!
Don't you want to know the people who visit the same stalls/restaurants as you do? Who share similar
favorites as you? Start building your network of Foodlane friends!
Watch your popularity bar grow as your circle of friends increases!
Create or join in the discussions in Foodlane Groups! Chat about anything (well.. preferably food related)!
We would be holding contests and challenges in Foodlane Groups from August onwards, so keep your eyes there!
