VikSchewa: Menu Translator

One menu on the house: everything Pro can do — no subscription, no credit card. And you see what lands on your plate before you order.

The menu says “vegetable curry.” VikSchewa tells you it probably contains fish sauce.

Photograph any menu — VikSchewa translates it into your language, spots your allergens, scores every dish against your profile, and warns you about ingredients that aren’t even listed.

ONE OF A KIND: HIDDEN-INGREDIENT WARNING Fish sauce in a Thai curry, bacon in the carbonara, meat stock in the “vegetable” soup: many dishes contain typical ingredients no menu ever lists. VikSchewa knows the world’s cuisines and warns you — matched to your allergens AND your diet (29 critical ingredients, from dashi to gelatin). Free for everyone. It also flags trace risks from the kitchen — like a shared fryer or a shared grill.

ALLERGY PASS FOR THE WAITER Show staff your allergies in their language — a clear full-screen card, available offline, in 85 languages. Built once from your profile, always with you. Now with a cross-contact note and the right questions to ask the kitchen.

“MATCH FOR YOU” — YOUR PERSONAL SCORE Pick your allergens, diets (vegan, vegetarian, halal, kosher, gluten-free, lactose-free, pescatarian), dislikes, favorite cuisines and your taste (spicy, sour, sweet, savory, rich). VikSchewa scores every dish 0–100, sorts the best for you to the top and explains why — and gets smarter with every favorite you save. And when a dish is risky for you, VikSchewa shows safer picks from the same menu.
