Wonder is acquiring Grubhub

whoa, they own Chai Pani and Fred's Meat and Bread, both of which are _excellent_ fast casual spots in Atlanta. It's just... it's like $28 for a Philly cheesesteak, so I've only been to each twice. edit: ok it's $16 each apparently, but still

But also, they own physical chains, real estate ("food halls" aka bougie food courts) and now... meal delivery? It sounds like the most expensive-to-operate things all squashed into one.

edit: and they own Blue Apron?! I feel like they're going to buy Candy Crush next

It's really hard to see how this is going to work out long-term.

Meat and Bread is in Seattle and Vancouver too, and yes, it’s fantastic lunch.

Looks like it's "Fred's Meat and Bread" which is different than the Meet & Bread chain in Vancouver, Calgary, and Austin.

I don’t think they necessarily own the restaurants. They license the menu and cook/sell from a ghost kitchen.
