memo
  • As mentioned in the article, it would become interesting if the system integrates with restaurant search services like Tabelog.

Solutions for restaurant industry are increasing along with smartphone (mainly for customer side) and tablet (mainly for restaurant side) penetration. It is very interesting to see who will win the fierce competition.
