LocalNosh is for people who think about food the way others think about music or art — not just as sustenance, but as history, identity, and something worth seeking out. Whether you live in the city or you're passing through for a long weekend, LocalNosh gives you the context to eat like someone who actually understands the place. FOOD HAS A STORY. WE TELL IT. Every dish on LocalNosh comes with its full history — where it came from, what it meant to the people who made it, and how it became part of a city's identity. The gumbo in New Orleans, the deep-dish in Chicago, the Mission burrito in San Francisco — these aren't just menu items. They're chapters in a longer story about immigration, geography, culture, and community. We cover 20 American cities, each with: — Essential Eats: the dishes that define the city, with the cultural history behind each one — Dish Stories: origin, evolution, how locals eat it, and what makes each version worth seeking out — Neighborhood Guides: the food character of each neighborhood — not just the famous blocks — Food History: the events, migrations, and moments that shaped what a city puts on the table — Food Crawls: curated routes through the city's best eating streets — Food Passport: track every dish you've tried and build your edible map of America STORIES & COMMUNITY Write and share your own food stories — the meals that stayed with you, the finds that surprised you, the places worth telling someone about. Follow other food travelers, see what they're eating, and build a community around the thing you all have in common. RANKED EVERY SUNDAY Every nomination on LocalNosh is ranked using two signals: Google ratings updated weekly, and votes from LocalNosh users tallied every Sunday. No editorial thumb on the scale — just what the data says at the end of each week. Come as a visitor. Eat like someone who belongs. 20 cities. The stories behind every bite. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **Subscriptions** | Subscription | Price | Period | | --- | --- | --- | | LocalNosh Premium | $69.99 | per year | | LocalNosh Premium Monthly | $9.99 | per month | ## Version history (last 4 releases) ### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-23 • New app icon • Food history timelines now show full date ranges (e.g. "Pre-1800s" instead of "Pre") • Removed the Bars & Breweries sections to sharpen focus on food-first experiences • Cleaner restaurant rankings — simplified links to restaurant details • Minor fixes and polish ### 1.0.2 — 2026-07-13 App Store "What's New" (public-facing, build 88) Essential Eats now rank by community votes when a dish has enough local endorsements, falling back to Google ratings for newer spots Food history updated and expanded for all 20 cities, displayed in chronological order Place pages now link directly to each venue's website and Google Maps Expanded bar and brewery listings across multiple cities via Google Places Improved community nomination search relevance Dish history and cultural detail now available to all users Profile page shows your name, initials, and username Simplified sign-in — email and password only Stability improvements to authentication, admin tools, and session handling ### 1.0.1 — 2026-07-09 What's New Bug fixes and improvements: Fixed an issue where the profile screen showed empty data after saving Profile photo and username now display correctly after sign-in Minor UI improvements to the profile screen ### 1.0 — 2026-07-07 No release notes. ## More apps by Richard Ellis - [Numara Wellness](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/numara-wellness/id6758232400) All apps by Richard Ellis: https://appshunter.io/developer/1869758118 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
