I always have a hard time deciding what to have for lunch. Making a foursquare list has helped keep track of the local options, but I still have a hard time deciding where to go. Apparently I’m not alone, because a new foursquare-connected app is designed to help answer that question for you every day.

Where Next?! finds the last place you checked in on foursquare and sends you an email at lunch time each day with nearby lunch recommendations from foursquare Explore. It even includes the reasoning behind the recommendations.

When you sign up, you tell Where Next?! what time you want to receive the recommendations and which days of the week to send them. If you only go out on the weekends, for instance, you don’t have to get them all through the week, too.

Where Next?! is a side project from foursquare engineer Zack Sheppard.

This is an easy way to help settle that age-old dilemma of what to eat for lunch. It’s especially helpful for people who aren’t in the same place at lunch-time each day. I’m usually in my office at lunchtime, so the recommendations don’t vary too much, but for people who travel often, this is a great tool.

Give Where Next?! a try and let us know what you think in the comments.
