Add this filter:

app.filter('unique', function () {
return function ( collection, keyname) {
var output = [],
    keys = []
    found = [];

if (!keyname) {

    angular.forEach(collection, function (row) {
        var is_found = false;
        angular.forEach(found, function (foundRow) {

            if (foundRow == row) {
                is_found = true;                            
            }
        });

        if (is_found) { return; }
        found.push(row);
        output.push(row);

    });
}
else {

    angular.forEach(collection, function (row) {
        var item = row[keyname];
        if (item === null || item === undefined) return;
        if (keys.indexOf(item) === -1) {
            keys.push(item);
            output.push(row);
        }
    });
}

return output;
};
});

Update your markup:

   {{place.category}}
