What is Today’s Mealow?
Today’s Mealow (今食喵, or just Mealow) is a free food picker for when you can’t decide what to eat.
Pick a way to eat and answer a few quick questions: what style, who you’re with, what you skip. Mealow looks up real places near you on Google Maps (Amap in China), and an AI picks 3 dishes from them, each with the place’s name.
It works in English and Chinese with no sign-up, and as a WeChat Mini Program. Made by Ziwei Yu.
Yes. Today’s Mealow first looks up real places near you with a map service, then picks dishes from those places. It doesn’t invent restaurants. Check opening hours and prices with the shop or the map.
It’s free and there’s nothing to download. The web app runs in your browser and works without an account; signing in with Google just keeps your saved dishes and profile in the cloud.
Tap “Show me others” and the cat picks a new round, trying to avoid the places and dishes you just saw. You can also go back and choose a different way to eat.
Yes. The web app is in English and Simplified Chinese, and the food wheels also have Traditional Chinese. Search 今食喵 in WeChat for the Mini Program.
Pick a way to eat, then say the style, who you’re with and what you skip. Today’s Mealow picks 3 dishes from real places near you. If you’d rather not answer, tap the random food generator once.
Spin the lunch wheel across rice bowls, noodles and bento, or type the places near work. To choose by your afternoon, read the lunch guide.
If you still plan to sleep, pick something smaller and less greasy: porridge, greens, a tea egg or unsweetened soy milk. For a bigger bite, the late-night wheel has fried chicken, braised snacks and instant noodles.
