Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.

Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:
https://apps.apple.com/app/vota-restaurant-ratings/id6744969212

And here’s the Android version (finally live):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vota.app

P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.

"Old Time" («Старые времена») sausage spot

Me and my family are planning to visit Tbilisi very soon. Does anybody know if this place, highly respected among the locals, offers halal sausages and if Batono Nodar still serves the clients himself? I can see from photos that they offer beer as well but we can take sausages only. If so, we'll be happy to add the spot to our itinerary.

We're planning to stop by anyway to say hello to Batono Nodar as a token of respect and gratitude to himself and his hard work for all these years, as we still cherish good ol' memories from our Soviet past. :o)

Matlobat, and thank you for understanding!

Not enjoying it here so far

I’m here from the 17th - 21st and it’s been a letdown so far. I haven’t experienced much ‘Georgian Hospitality’ yet, it’s felt more like the locals would prefer it if I wasn’t here.
This has been a big culture shock coming from Turkey, where all the locals are very welcoming and genuinely interested in chatting, even if it’s just small talk. There’s also a lot less English than I was expecting.

Anyway, any advice on how to make the most of the next couple of days here? I’m travelling solo and am looking to connect with people.
Thanks!

Update: did a day trip today which was great! Thanks for the tips and the roasts 🤣

თბილისის სიმპათიური კაცები სად დაიარებით? 👀

სად იმალებით? სად ხართ? რომელ ქუჩებზე, კაფეებში, ბარებში, პარკებში დადიხართ? 😂

ხანდახან მგონია, რომ თბილისში სიმპათიური კაცების საიდუმლო მიწისქვეშა საზოგადოება არსებობს და მე უბრალოდ ვერ ვიპოვე შესასვლელი.

მოკლედ, გოგოებო და ბიჭებო, გამიმხილეთ: სად** ხართ?** 😭

Construction in the city?

Hi all. About to travel to Tbilisi for a few weeks. I keep getting Tbilisi videos on my Instagram algorithm. Some of them are about the complaints of construction going on. Realistically, how much of the city is under construction?

I am aware Tbilisi is huge but I’ve now seen too many videos of the like.

Just want to find one person with same interests

I thought it would be great to find someone new so here I'm.

I'm local🇬🇪 and I'm open to talk with everyone.

Hey, I'm here for only one person I don't need 15 people to talk to, my goal is one genuine and long-term conversation with a person who has same interests. And I'm Male 24 by the way.

I really like to cook, it's my main hobby, it makes me very happy to try new recipes and share my own recipe with someone. I know 3 languages: Georgian, Russian and English, I really need to practice with my English tho my grammar is horrible, I'm trying to learn some Italian also. I workout a little, I was a heavy lifter in the past. I like to play video games, and it would be awesome to play some games with someone. Mostly I'm busy with work or in university (I'm studying for my master’s degree) I don't need to have 24/7 conversation, but I really appreciate when a person is paying attention and is willing to really get to know me. I don't need no one minute conversation. Also, I need to say that I'm not in a relationship right now, and I'm not trying to look for it, but friendship is a good fundament for a relationship so let's see what gonna happen.

Are there dangers that are being covered up?

Recently, several tourists have died under very suspicious circumstances “or committed suicide.” A Georgian acquaintance told me I shouldn’t travel to Georgia until these incidents have been fully investigated - and that I definitely shouldn’t enter the country without a carbon monoxide detector. But he also said there are dangers that aren’t just invisible gas.

My question is: Is there an ongoing debate about this within Georgia, or are people making a bigger deal out of it than it really is?

Pros and cons of renting monthly versus hotel/airbnb

Can you all please share your pros and cons of renting monthly versus hotel/airbnb?

Obviously neighborhoods matter too but since I don't know the best areas, I can't be more specific with my questions.

I appreciate your time and help.

Illegal job postings

Hello guys, this topic was disturbing me for a while and if they don't take the post down I want to share it. So basically I was looking at jobs in Tbilisi online, and well as algorithm works every one of my ads, especially on Instagram were job postings. I messaged couple of them through Instagram link and then in telegram chat and even though it was posted as something else, they were offering me to deliver dr*gs (censoring just in case) and get 1000 dollars a week. Ofc I was not tempted but I found lot of jobs like this, idk what to do, reporting to police doesn't have any point because they won't find them through telegram and I don't want to get on criminals radar, its scary, but also it feels wrong to not do anything since someone who is innocent but in need of cash will definitely take the job, maybe young people. Is there something I can do?

Dive ბარი რო იყო გახსოვთ? დაივის ბირპონგი და ასე შემდეგ. ეგეთი სიტუაციები გაქრა ხო საქართველოში? რა ქნეს ასეთი? დრა*ების ბრალია ალბათ, ლუდი ისმეოდა ბევრი ეხლა რაღაცეებია ალბათ ისეთები რო აღარ ისმევა. მჟავე ლუდს ვსვამდით ხოლმე, პრობლემა არ იყო...

Whats with the Fireworks?

Hello everyone. I' am a tourist and I've e been staying in Tibilsi for almost a month, and in different areas and it seems like almost every night people are letting off fireworks.

What's the reason behind this?

Is this a common Georigan recreation?

Thankyou.

Looking to buy blue laser diode

I need the spectrum to be around 445nm, but my tolerance for the color is high, it just HAS to be blue.

and the power must be a safe, low amount, 100-350mW. As it will be used for a cosplay prop, and has to be below laser safety class level 3R/3B.

I have checked both DAC.ge and edisonstore.ge neither have blue colored laser diodes.

Does anyone know where I can find it? alongside it's driver board?

Thank you for your time!
