FineDine came into existence when the founders, while on a business trip abroad struggled to order food with ease due to language barriers. This led the pair to embark on extensive market research with both consumers and business owners, attempting to uncover the key issues facing both parties in restaurant interactions. They then created the FineDine Menu in light of this knowledge.
