Ever wondering how to find a tasty ramen but unable to speak in Japanese while visiting Tokyo?
Fundine is a mobile application designed to help people to find delicious restaurant around Tokyo, specifically ramen stores. The idea is to create a mobile app geared toward foreigners who wished to have a great ramen during their visit to Tokyo but having difficulty to finding one due to language restrictions.
As the following UI designer for this project, I'm responsible to design an easy-to-navigate application that emphasizes practicality and can be used by anyone with no knowledge of Japanese. The developer team wishes to have an application with functions such as map-searching, favorite list, profile page that act as a platform to share pictures and blog, and restaurant suggestion based on liked posts.
