Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: PalAte App at Free against Veggie Weekend's $4.99. PalAte App also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 9) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). Veggie Weekend's advantage is ratings volume (265 vs 4) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 12.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
