Review: FoodPanda
5:55 AM
Monsoon, as much as I love the season I hate to admit that
it makes me lazy. The pitter patter raindrops on my windowsill makes me curl on
the sofa with a good book and a steaming hot cup of coffee. Till this it was ok
but it also makes me or rather the whole family crave some good food, something
fresh, hot and spicy. But with a small kid and demanding jobs its always not
easy to go out on weekdays, especially in these muddy puddly roads around our
locality. So as a best measure we order food from our nearest South Indian
restaurant, which seems like the only option for us. In the last couple of
weeks we ordered from it so many times that finally the 4 year old in the
family objected for yet another order of Masala dosa.
So just to find out new restaurants I searched for online
food delivery and chanced upon this beautiful website of Foodpanda. Which is a
huge network of ordering food online across the world. Through them ordering
food from the comfort of your home is as easy as counting 1-2-3. You enter your
post code, choose from their huge array of cuisine type, price range,
Restaurants or delivery hours, then you simply go through the menu of your
chosen restaurant and order.
The best part is their home page is always updated with
all the ongoing discounts and offers from all the restaurants throughout the cities. If you are not much of an internet user
or in a situation without any connection you can even order food from your
phone. And unlike other online services you don’t even need to have a credit
card, rather you can simply settle for cash on delivery option. To make it
easier they have their hotline number open from 11 A.m to 11 P.m.
Their huge network covers many countries all over the
world and in India presently they are catering to the needs of Delhi,
Faridabad, Greater noida, gurgaon, Gaziabad, Jaipur, Mumbai, Chandigarh,
Mohali, Pune, Hyderabad. Too bad for me that they are not yet here in Kolkata.
The fact that I liked most is it’s a very well thought out concept and the website itself is very
easy to access and user friendly. They have not loaded the page with unwanted
information rather has concentrated only on those facts which are necessary for
food orderings and enjoying them in the comfort of your home. So if you are
someone like me who wants to enjoy varieties of food on a regular basis and too
lazy to cook it yourself then your best bet could be Foodpanda.
As for me am eager to try out their service and look forward to the day when they will extend the same to my city.
