Before reading the Press Release, here is something from the PR appendix which I think is more interesting than the Press Release. Who is this person who did over 1,100 reviews on the app?<\/p>\n
BURPPLE TIDBITS TO CHEW ON<\/strong><\/p>\n It is a given that Burpple users are a food-loving bunch, but just how are they using\u00a0Burpple in their lives? Here are some facts and figures for your enjoyment:<\/p>\n Press Release<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n From chewing on authentic food reviews and making reservations to ordering takeouts\u00a0and posting personal experiences, the new Burpple serves up a complete dining journey\u00a0on a single app<\/em><\/p>\n SINGAPORE, 11 APRIL 2017<\/strong> \u2013 Burpple\u2019s fast growing community of food lovers have\u00a0greater cause to celebrate, as the leading food discovery platform introduces new features\u00a0to make their dining experience quicker and more convenient.<\/p>\n Already a trusted source of food reviews (over 3 million of them) from real customers and\u00a0tastemakers, Burpple extends the enjoyment of discovery – where to eat, and what to\u00a0order \u2013 to other great functions for the Burpple community, making the app a foodie friend\u00a0one can literally carry in the pocket.<\/p>\n In addition, Burpple users no longer have to worry about getting a table at their favourite\u00a0restaurant as they can now make a reservation at over 1,800 restaurants on Chope or\u00a0Quandoo, directly from Burpple.<\/p>\n Furthermore, thanks to a partnership with Deliveroo, Burpple users can choose to savour\u00a0the best food recommended by the Burpple community with family and friends at home.\u00a0Takeout deliveries can be made from more than 2,000 locations by booking directly from\u00a0the new mobile app and website.<\/p>\n Dixon Chan, Co-founder and CEO of Burpple, said: \u201cThe dining table is one of the most\u00a0fascinating platforms in the world. It is where billions of people share, laugh, love, heal and\u00a0enjoy, multiple times a day. Our mission is to help people enjoy life by finding the perfect\u00a0places to eat with the people they love. Keeping this in mind, we\u2019ve redesigned the\u00a0discovery experience to better reflect our vision of enjoyment. It also reflects the learnings\u00a0we\u2019ve gained from both customers and businesses in the past years.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cFood and hospitality are meant to facilitate warm human interactions. Yet, customers and\u00a0businesses are so often divided and do not have the opportunities to communicate with\u00a0each other. Burpple is in a unique position to connect customers and businesses in a\u00a0meaningful way. We imagine a new world where hospitality begins and ends online, where\u00a0customers know businesses a lot better and vice versa, and The New Burpple is the first\u00a0step of this direction.\u201d<\/p>\n Launched in 2012 by three Singaporeans, Burpple has since grown exponentially and has\u00a0become the de facto social gathering ground for foodies in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.\u00a0Burpple is used by a growing community of over 5 million in 2016, and powered by some 3\u00a0million reviews to help users make informed dining choices.<\/p>\n \u2212 END \u2013<\/p>\n About <\/strong>Burpple<\/p>\n Founded in Silicon Valley by three Singaporeans, Burpple was launched in May 2012 with a\u00a0mission to help people find the perfect places to enjoy their meals with the people they love.
