Neighborhood is most powerful when goose combines it with context from your day — your schedule, your goals, your dietary needs. Instead of just searching for food, you can ask goose to reason about what to eat based on what you're doing.

### Step 1: Find restaurants near you
Ask goose to find lunch options nearby. You can include details like your location, dietary restrictions, and what you're up to — goose will factor it all in.
**Prompt:**
```
Use the neighborhood extension for this. I'm looking to get lunch today.
I'm at 375 W Broadway in New York. I'm playing tennis later tonight.
Could you suggest some options so I can play well?
```

I'd recommend these options:
Best picks for athletic performance:
Kale & Things - Perfect for a healthy, nutrient-dense meal with greens and
lean proteins to give you sustained energy without feeling heavy
Simply Natural Grill House NY (684 Broadway) - Great for grilled proteins
and wholesome meals that'll fuel your game
Best picks for a light, gluten-free meal:
Ba'al Falafel (71 Sullivan St) - Mediterranean food with falafel, hummus,
and fresh veggies provides good carbs and protein
and fresh veggies — great carbs and protein
Tips for eating before tennis:
Kale & Things - Perfect for a healthy, nutrient-dense meal with greens and
lean proteins for sustained energy without feeling heavy
Tips for eating before playing sport:
- Eat 2-3 hours before playing to allow digestion
- Focus on complex carbs + lean protein (avoid heavy, fatty foods)
- Stay hydrated - consider grabbing a drink from Steam & Sip or Drip Drop Café
Would you like me to pull up the menu for any of these restaurants so you can
see what they offer? Kale & Things sounds like it could be ideal for your
pre-match meal!

goose uses the Neighborhood extension's interactive UI to display restaurant cards right in the chat — each showing the name, category, and address with a **View menu** button.

goose doesn't just list restaurants — it tailors its recommendations to your situation. Since you mentioned playing tennis later, goose suggests meals that are energizing but not too heavy, and even includes a pro tip on pre-match eating timing.

Click on any restaurant to view its menu.
### Step 2: Browse the menu
Ask goose to open a specific restaurant's menu. The interactive MCP app renders a full browsable menu directly in the chat — complete with category tabs, food photos, prices, and descriptions.
**Prompt:**
```
I'd like to view the Ba'al Falafel menu.
```
[![Ba'al Falafel menu displayed with category tabs, photos, prices, and descriptions in goose](/img/neighborhood-menu.png)](/img/neighborhood-menu.png)
Browse through all the available dishes — Sandwiches, Salads, Combo platters, Soups, Pastries, Sides, Drinks, and more. Ask goose to add anything that catches your eye to your cart.
### Step 3: Add to cart and check out
Tell goose what you'd like to order and it will add items to your cart. goose even takes your dietary preferences into account when suggesting items.
**Prompt:**
```
Add a Beets Apple Salad, Lentil Soup, and a Ginger Lemonade to my cart.
```
[![Order summary with items, subtotal, and checkout button](/img/neighborhood-cart.png)](/img/neighborhood-cart.png)
Your cart is ready! From here, just click the **Check out** button — it takes you straight to the payment page powered by Cash App. Complete your payment, and all that's left is to go pick up your lunch. 🎉
