Official food delivery thread

Post by fightinfrenchman »

This is the thread for all things about food delivery.

Basically since the pandemic I've been ordering food even more often and it's driven me insane with all the choices.

But the main reason I'm posting this is because I just ordered crab legs from a place I've never heard of, and I can't find any sign it actually exists other than food delivery apps. Curious if it's some kind of scam/experiment.

This one was worse imo because a random pizza joint you've never heard of you don't have high expectations generally. A place that specializes in and only serves seafood is what piqued my interest

I would never order from a place that I had no idea what it was without looking for their physical location

I wasted so much money on food delivery in my first year at uni, so thankful i realised it's smarter to just bulk make shit.

Making food in bulk doesn't give you the variety you get by ordering from dozens of different restaurants

You can make like 4 different meals though and then vary them throughout the week.

Also comparatively a lot of stuff you make at home is just better, for example bread you bake yourself is almost always better.

That requires time and effort, two things I hate expending

Cooking is only fun if you're doing it with someone you like. Otherwise it's miserable

I’m sort of ambivalent to cooking alone, erring towards cbf, but wholeheartedly, infinitely agree that cooking with someone else makes the experience so much better

I have worked a bit for Deliveroo with my bike. For me it's overall a fun job but I was just doing it for some extra cash for the weekend and there isn't a lot of traffic in the city i do it in. It's calm and not too big. But i can totally see why it would suck as a job if you had to do it 8 hours/day in a big city.
I almost never order delivery food, i kinda enjoy going to get it myself.

because making it takes effort and bigmac tastes really nice. the additional sugar and salt from the meal is just a bonus
