Attention San Antonians! How’d you feel about a Food Delivery Bus. that delivers hot fresh food to your house?

February 282010

For a nominal fee, either $6.00 or 15% (whichever is less) of the total (plus tips) , food from one of 20 different local restaurants within our network could be delivered to your home or office with any purchase of $15.00 or more, OR from any restaurant in town for $10.00 or 20% (whichever is less). No more ordering a pizza, just because no one wants to cook! No more burgers or fried chicken because their all that’s easily available. I can deliver between 10:00am and 9:00pm, 7 days a week. Of course delivery times will vary, but logistically, I should be able to deliver most meals in 45 minutes to 1 hour. Would you use such a service? How do you feel about the pricing? What have i forgotten to address? Any additional suggestions?

I think you need to work on your pitch, and have easier pricing. That’s really confusing.

Basically you’re a delivery service, so you’re outsourcing something businesses already do. That’s actually not bad.

What you may want to consider is trying to get a fleet and the network of businesses, then get the businesses to charge on their bill for delivery, and you get that fee from them, not from the customer. Then your customer is the businesses, and you’re offering the delivery service for them. No dealing with messy financials from hundreds or thousands of customers, no fiddling with change, you just deal with the restaurants in a certain radius.

This could actually be really good for businesses that cannot afford to hire their own driver, so they then aren’t able to deliver, you could free them of that.

It’s a brilliant idea, I just think that instead of appealing to the public, you should appeal to the businesses. Even if you start small, if you have a good area that has a number of small business restaurants you should do well. Plus they can pay the advertising, and you just get paid for delivery.

So just change your target customer, think of the businesses as your customers, not the public at large.

Do other Countries have food delivery services like we do in America?

February 262010

What are some services we have in America, that other Countries don’t have?

None. America is not unique with anything. Anything that america has, other countries have and they usually have much better. For example, at mcdonalds in Thailand and Philippines and many other places, they deliver, and burger king too. I have never seen a burger king or mcdonalds in USA that delivers. In USA they have the double filet o fish now. Thailand had this years before USA ever started selling them in american mcdonalds. Its ironic that even american companies in other countries are more advanced over there rather than over here in USA. They also have the double big mac (aka the mega mac, 4 patties), which USA doesnt have. So the delivery options in other countries have always been much better than USA as well as the food.

February 242010

Okay so I’ve been working 7 day weeks between 2 jobs and I finally have a day off. I’ve been home all day just chillin, watchin movies, surfing the net, talking to friends on the phone. However, I don’t have any food at home because I’m too busy to grocery shop so do any of you know of any good websites that will list all different types of food available for delivery in the Los Angeles area? I’ve tried the yellow pages but it’s not very helpful. I have a hunger induced headache and would like to order any kind of food as soon as possible so your speedy reply is MUCH appreciated!!! Thank you! :)

What can I do with all of those packets of Duck Sauce that I get from the Chinese food delivery?

February 222010

I don’t want them to go to waste, and they keep sending me more. We don’t really care for duck, but I’d like to have some good ideas on how to otherwise use them.

Hoisin-Based Dipping Sauces
Hoisin’s main claim to fame comes from its being brushed on the Mandarin pancakes served with Peking Duck and Mu Shu Pork, two classic Beijing restaurant dishes.

As a dipping sauce, hoisin-based sauces can be used in place of plum sauce. In fact, plum sauce gets its nickname, “duck sauce” from the fact that westerners initially confused the two, believing plum sauce was served with Peking Duck.
Since hoisin sauce is quite thick, it is frequently thinned with a bit of water and/or sesame oil before serving. Other seasonings may include sugar, garlic, ginger and chili oil.
Serve with:

Chinese pancakes, steamed buns
Meat, particularly chicken and pork (I like to use it as a marinade for chicken thighs – the thighs are placed in a zipped-lock bag with the hoisin sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar and other seasonings, refrigerated and marinated for 2 hours).
Stir-fries, deep-fried food, grilled satays and noodles (Add during cooking or serve at the table)

How do restaurants make money on food deliveries without charging a separate delivery fee?

February 202010

With the cost of gas, labor, etc., the profit margin has to be pretty slim. Am I wrong?

The mark up on resturaunt food is pretty substantial.
Consider when you cook at home vs. when you eat out.
It cost you pennies by camparison.
Now consider how mush more you would save if you bought your food at bulk.
The resturaunts are still making a pretty penny.
