How it works

Dinner decided in just 3 taps.

Tell us your vibe

Looking for something fast & easy? Or does cozy and comfort fit tonight?

Tap what you don't want

Dinner, done.

One dish that fits your vibe and needs. Like it? Perfect. Not feeling it? Tap for another. No scrolling, no overwhelm.

Infinite Possibilities

One Suggestion

You're not lazy
You're just out of brain power

By 6pm, you've made a thousand decisions. 

Figuring out dinner shouldn't have to be another one.

This is called the dinner dilemma, and it's a real psychological phenomenon.

You've been deciding all day

Work. Life. Everything in between. By the time you think about dinner, you've got nothing left. This is the dinner dilemma, the nightly mental struggle of deciding what to cook.

Endless scrolling through recipe apps without deciding
Scroll. Scroll. Scroll. Still hungry.

You've looked at 47 recipes and you're no closer to an answer. Now you're just frustrated.

Juggling multiple dinner constraints and preferences
Too many things to juggle

What's in the fridge? How much time do you have? What will people actually eat? It's exhausting to keep track of it all.

This shouldn't be so hard

You just want to eat something decent without having to think so hard about it. That's not asking for much.

We're not a recipe app, 

Recipe apps help you meal plan. ThisDish is for when you don't.

How does ThisDish help with dinner decision fatigue?

Instead of browsing endless recipes when you're already exhausted, ThisDish narrows options through elimination. You tap what you DON'T want (way easier than choosing from everything), and we suggest one dish at a time. It's faster and requires less mental energy than scrolling.

Do I need to meal plan ahead with ThisDish?

Nope! ThisDish is designed for right now, when you haven't planned anything and just need an answer. Recipe apps help you meal plan. ThisDish is for when you don't. It works when you're drawing a complete blank at 6pm.

Is ThisDish really free?

Yes! ThisDish is 100% free, forever. No cost, no credit card required, no hidden fees. We built this to help people escape decision fatigue, not to add another subscription to manage.

How is ThisDish different from recipe apps like Pinterest or Allrecipes?

Recipe apps give you thousands of options to browse through, which sounds great until you're tired and can't decide. ThisDish uses elimination to narrow it down automatically. You tell us what you're NOT in the mood for, and we give you one suggestion at a time. No scrolling, no overwhelm.

What if I don't like the suggestion?

Just tap for another suggestion. We'll give you a different dish that fits your vibe and constraints. Keep tapping until something feels right. The goal is to make deciding easy, not force you into something you don't want.

Who is ThisDish for?

ThisDish is perfect for anyone experiencing dinner decision fatigue, busy professionals, couples who struggle to agree, people cooking solo, or anyone who's just tired of the nightly "what's for dinner?" stress. If you're drawing a blank at 6pm with no dinner ideas, ThisDish is for you.
