If you havent been living under the rock, then you know what Wikitude is and if not then in plain simple word its real world browser so when you point the camera around your surrounding like in a big park or a mall, it brings things to reality telling you about the events, link to Wikipedia articles, ATM’s Sights, Restaurants, Coffee, Pubs, Tweets and accommodation around you.
This amazing service is now available for Windows Phone Also which was released today, Thanks Michael. The app comes with three screens in panorama view

Using it is very simple, select Restaurants and it will launch the camera, next point it to any direction it will find the nearest place you can have an amazing food with a radar on top which gives you red point density showing you how many are around you. This works even if you point to your wall like I did sitting at my office.
Selecting the list view get details of the places like Name, Address, Distance etc for which you can see it on map, get directions and open the web page if any.
