If the user's address indicated by the address information is included in the certain area, the evaluation information indicating the evaluation of the food or the restaurant performed by the user is included in the results of the evaluation of the foods or the restaurants performed by the residents of the certain area.

Method for providing information, method for controlling communication terminal, communication terminal, and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing program

A management server obtains rating information indicating a second user's rating of a dish or restaurant, generates a first evaluation value of the first user's sense of taste based on a measurement test regarding the sense of taste, and generates a second evaluation value of the second user's sense of taste based on a measurement test regarding the sense of taste. One search filter for filtering dishes or restaurants based on rating results of the dishes or the restaurants rated by a second user who has a sense-of-taste characteristic similar to that of the first user is provided on a dish search screen. When the first user uses the search filter to filter dishes or restaurants, and when a first difference between the first and second evaluation values is in a first predetermined range, the second user's rating results are used to filter the dishes or the restaurant.
