    I try to avoiding ordering from the apps and prefer to order directly from the location. I have to pick it up but you save time and money. But I don’t always have the time to do that.

    I don’t really understand how virtual brands and ghosts kitchen are allowed on the apps. It feels ridiculous

      Pizzerias in Italy have been delivering for ages without apps. I don’t understand why everybody uses apps now.

        Because with an app you can open it and see all Restaurants that deliver to you and see what they have to offer.

        I simply don’t know an alternative that offers a comparable user experience.

            Maybe I didn’t see it, but Google Maps does not have a filter for places that do delivery. It also does not show the menu. Maybe the restaurant has a link in the description, but that is often not the case.

          Yeah, but still. After a while you get to know which restaurants you like. And you can call them directly without giving money to big companies.
