Foodpanda Lunch at Café Mangii

It’s officially the internet age. We Mumbaikars have so many great websites that make our life easier. Do you want to book tickets for the latest film or gig? There’s a website for that. Do you want to book plane tickets? There’s a website for that. Do you want to to order groceries? There’s a website for that too!

But are you sitting at home (possibly in front of your computer like me) & not in the mood to cook? I, like many others had started to collect those pamphlets & menus from all the restaurants I knew of in the area. But even that was a big problem, because there were times when I was seriously hungry & realised I couldn’t find the menu for the restaurant I wanted! Sure a pizza chain does offer easy online ordering but after a point you get tired of eating from the same place too. Then what?

Well it gives me great pleasure to say that there’s a website for that too – Foodpanda! They take the headache & guesswork out of ordering takeout. You just put in your pincode & you get a list of all the restaurants that deliver to you. And you can sort & search by cuisine type or price range. Have a look at the online menu, place your order & you know the drill (by that I mean your food is delivered at your doorstep & you can dig in!)

Foodpanda had a late luncheon for some us Mumbai bloggers / tweeters over at Café Mangii, Khar. Even though we were already there they made us place our orders through the website to get a feel of it. The hardest thing of course was making up our minds about what to order. After that the process was smooth.

I got a deliciously meaty Calzone pizza & while eating we got to meet the Foodpanda mascot too (obviously a panda). I’m very happy that we have something like Foodpanda. Now if only there were more restaurants that offered round the clock service.
