What’s the story behind it?

Booky started in early 2014 from a personal problem: Ben Wintle and girlfriend, Iza Calzado, love to eat out but found it difficult to Google restaurant information because 3G in the Philippines is so slow.

Ben and his team prototyped the first version of Booky that focused on enabling people to search restaurant information without internet. Through listening to friends and heavy users, the app continuously improved over the past 2 years to what it is today–the most used food app in the Philippines.
