Zagat Survey, the world's leading provider of consumer generated survey information, and Foodspotting, a site where members share photos of restaurant dishes, today announced a digital partnership. Forthcoming versions of Zagat's mobile applications will offer users access to thousands of Foodspotting photos of dishes at Zagat Rated restaurants nationwide.

"Our goal is to help users make smart dining decisions," said Nina Zagat, Co-Founder, Zagat Survey. "In our most recent New York City survey, 85% of respondents said that they look at a restaurant's menu before going. By providing users with Foodspotting photos on their mobile devices, we'll be giving them a chance to actually see the food as well. "

Foodspotting's online and mobile users will be able to earn a Zagat Badge by adding photos of their favorite dishes from Zagat Rated restaurants in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York or San Francisco.

Alexa Andrzejewski, CEO and Co-founder of Foodspotting stated, "We're excited to have Zagat be the first partner to leverage Foodspotting data to enhance their restaurant listings. By integrating Foodspotting photos, the Zagat apps will not only be a great resource for helping people decide where to eat, but they'll also help you decide what to eat once you're there."
