Founded in 2015 by Croatian journalist and entrepreneur Matija Babić, it took more than three years of research and development before the project launched in late 2018.[9] The site was still in the MVP phase in early 2018 with about 5,000 dishes included. It received an honorable mention in 2018 Awwwards.
Reportedly, the company does not intend to compete with the likes of Michelin guide or Tripadvisor, as it sees its niche between haute cuisine recommendations of the former and popular tourist places of the latter, none of which focus on traditional dishes. The site uses reviews and recommendations from gastronomy professionals and critics reviews instead of user-generated content, citing trustworthiness as the main reason. It is a recommended curriculum resource in several education systems, such as in Ireland and Kansas.
