We currently deep link into other apps. You find a highly reviewed dish and then choose your preferred delivery platform (i.e. GrubHub).
We plan to build out full delivery services eventually, but we would use DoorDash to take care of the backend and logistics, so we would not be the ones actually delivering (that would be DoorDash).
Group orders is tough, and we haven't figured out how to crack that just yet :(
When it comes to delivering food, I like the process to be as swift and clear as possible- probably because I can't see the food or the place making it. I usually choose my dish/restaurant based on what I already know is good/craving. When I create group orders, which is more often than not, lots of recommendations are being exchanged because I'm definitely quite indecisive.
Because it's delivery and I'm limited to what's open/within a price range, I'm not very adventurous to avoid "risking it". I prefer to have a great meal than an adventurous one on busy days/days in.
Hopefully, with Simmer I can explore some new options confidently!
