Off-topic on the subject of restaurants:

I use the ML approach of combining other people's algorithms. :)

My first time in a new place, I'm usually with friends, and I imitate their orders. On the rare times when I'm not, I ask the waiter what the favorite plates of he/the other people in the restaurant are, what they order when they eat there.

This way even my initial orders are lightning-fast and already judged as 'tasty' in comparison to other offerings. And over time, I can investigate other plates for myself.
