How do you decide where to eat?

Most tools hand you a ranked list of thirty restaurants, which moves the work rather than doing it. Savor Scout takes your craving and location and returns one restaurant, showing its match score, what it beat, and the evidence behind the pick.

Yes. Searching is free, no app download is required, and you can run one search without creating an account.

How is Savor Scout different from Google Maps or Yelp?

Maps and Yelp are directories that rank everything and leave the deciding to you. Savor Scout makes the call. It reads menus and reviews for the specific dish you asked about rather than ranking places by overall star average, and it shows its reasoning. Its place data comes from the same public sources, so the difference is the selection, not the data.

How to find a good breakfast burrito

The breakfast burrito is a New Mexican invention that took over the Southwest and California: eggs, potatoes, meat and cheese, wrapped in a flour tortilla, ideally with green chile. It is the best portable breakfast there is.

What separates a good one from a bad one

Crisp potatoes — Hash browns or diced potatoes cooked until crisp, not boiled and soft.
Soft scrambled eggs — Fluffy, not rubbery.
Green chile — In New Mexico and Colorado, roasted green chile inside or smothered on top.
A fresh, warm tortilla — Soft, griddled to seal it.
Balanced fillings — Bacon, chorizo or sausage, cheese — each part tasting of itself.

What to order

Bacon, egg, potato and cheese — The standard.
Chorizo — Spicier and richer.
Smothered in green chile — New Mexico-style.
Salsa on the side — Fresh.
Coffee — To go.
