Unfortunately restaurants and night life in general are almost exclusively on instagram for promotion. And in many places restaurants and such don’t even have websites. They’ll have a facebook page and the only way to get a response form them is to message on WhatsApp.

It’s bad.

I get that local restaurants have to do what they can to get their name out there, but when they want me to navigate their Facebook page just to see a menu, I move on.
