Abstract: In the present days, life can be made smarter, including the food we eat by taking an option from the restaurant recommender systems. In this paper the authors proposed a restaurant recommender system based on the search of user cuisine. The top-k restaurants are identified along with the ratings of the restaurants recommended. The recommendations are retrieved based on the preference of the user cuisines which is an important category which inherently defines the other features, and these features are considered to provide a good service which is the novelty of this paper. Providing recommendations based on user cuisines is the complexity of the problem. The well-known k-Nearest Neighbor algorithm is implemented with the MapReduce paradigm which can quickly process huge amounts of data. Its performance is tested on benchmarked data set and the results are found to be successful.
