dishKarma Week 1

It’s been one week since the official introduction of dishKarma and we’d like to thank everyone who has contributed their questions, suggestions and favorite dishes. We’ve heard from friends, family, foodies, famous chefs, fellow marketers and more! It’s been great to get so much positive feedback and we look forward to sharing the next phase as we continue building out the concept.

"It’s fun to think about sitting down to your ultimate meal, but what’s the big picture vision for dishKarma? "

With your help, we’re going to build a comprehensive user driven database of the best individual dishes in the world. The search functionality will enhance as the database grows, and dishKarma will become a valuable resource when traveling or simply looking for the best place to find a specific dish in your neighborhood.

On a personal level, the more dishes you contribute, the more specific and relevant dinning suggestions you’ll receive. This is how we all truly benefit from spreading the dishKarma.

Currently we’re learning about your favorite dishes through videos and Twitter polls, but soon we’ll be rolling out a Web application that will more formally capture your ultimate meal. More on this in the coming days….

I can’t think of a better way to close out week one then with an ultimate meal video from our favorite wine connoisseur and all around marketing guru Gary Vaynerchuk of Wine Library TV! Gary serves up an eclectic mix of dishes, but stays impartial and leaves the locations up to us. Where is the best place to get each dish Gary orders in his ultimate meal (crudo, Olympia oysters, sweets breads, foie gras)?
