Gazoline

Quite a clever bot.

Find it at https://t.me/GazolineBot

Gazoline is an incredible opportunity to work with several interesting technologies, namely the Botfuel.io NLP platform, Foursquare data, and PostgreSQL's PostGIS extension.

It helps you pick restaurants around Paris' neighbourhood La Butte aux Cailles, by type.
