Swipe. Match. Eat.
A Tinder-inspired food discovery experience that helps event attendees find exactly what they're craving.
Finding food at a stadium, concert, or festival shouldn't feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.
BiteMatch transforms food discovery into an interactive game where every swipe teaches the system more about your taste. Instead of scrolling through endless vendor lists, users simply swipe on dishes they love, dislike, or absolutely crave—and receive a personalized food match in seconds.

Food isn't just about eating.
It's part of the experience.
Whether you're watching a football match, attending a concert, or exploring a food festival, deciding what to eat should feel exciting—not overwhelming.
Why browse hundreds of options when your perfect meal can find you instead?
BiteMatch combines familiar swipe interactions with recommendation logic to create a fun, intuitive, and memorable food discovery experience.
Large venues often have dozens of food vendors.
Visitors spend more time deciding what to eat than actually enjoying the event.
Traditional food directories suffer from several problems:
- Endless scrolling
- Information overload
- No personalization
- Difficult stall discovery
- Decision fatigue
The result?
Visitors either settle for the first option they see or miss out on food they'd actually enjoy.
BiteMatch introduces a gamified recommendation engine inspired by modern dating apps.
Users simply swipe through food cards:
- ❤️ Swipe Right to Like
- ❌ Swipe Left to Skip
- ⭐ Swipe Up to Favorite
Behind the scenes, BiteMatch analyzes every interaction to understand user preferences and generate a personalized recommendation.
Instead of presenting another list, the application reveals a celebratory Match Screen highlighting the user's ideal food category, recommended dishes, and the exact stall to visit.
Discover food through intuitive swipe interactions instead of traditional menus.
Analyze swipe behavior to generate recommendations tailored to each user's preferences.
Celebrate the final recommendation with an engaging animated match reveal.
Instantly locate the vendor serving your recommended meal.
Display real-time engagement badges such as:
- 🔥 1,240 fans loved this today
- ⭐ Most Popular Pick
- 🚀 Trending Right Now
Assign users a playful personality based on their food preferences, such as:
- 🍕 Comfort Food Champion
- 🌶️ Spice Seeker
- 🍣 Adventurous Explorer
- 🍰 Sweet Tooth Specialist
Designed primarily for touch interactions while seamlessly adapting to desktop layouts.
Recommendation systems are often hidden behind search bars and filters.
I wanted to explore a different approach.
What if discovering food felt more like playing a game than making a decision?
BiteMatch experiments with the idea that engaging interactions can reduce decision fatigue while making large venues feel more personalized.
The project also allowed me to combine UI design, animation, and recommendation logic into a single user experience.
