One of the cool shopping webistes which I use in Nigeria is called EasyAppetite. It is basically a food website and it allows Nigerian residents to order for food from their favourite local restaurants and get it delivered to their home or office. They can normally do deliveries on the same day as the order was made and buyers can also chose to do a pick up themselves, pay in advance or even pay on delivery.
I think the time is already ripe now for Nigerians to have access to buy read to eat meals online. We might have some online shopping websites but we also now do have food vending websites and sites like EasyAppetite make it easy to order for food that you really want to eat that same day.
One thing about ordering for food online with EasyAppetite is that you can book ahead before you get hungry by selecting a time frame during which you want the order delivered. This would allow you to know when to receive your order or decide to cancel it assuming they don't stick to the time. This would also allow you to make an alternative arrangement to without having to go hungry by the time you are about going for break.
To order for food online with EasyAppetite, all you need to have first in an internet service and a membership account. Just sign up for a free account if you haven't done so and then you can start placing your orders depending on your location in a particular state.
Once you select your location or Local government Area, you can then click on search to see a list of restaurants and meals or food that you want to buy. You'd also be able to see the fees and know if there are also any delivery charges attached to it.
If there are any delivery charges, Buying in bulk can help offset that charge and for some restaurants too, there do have a minimum amount of order they can accept and this can be N1000 or N500.
As far as I know, there are no hidden fees attached to using EasyAppetite and the only fees you have to pay are your food bill and delivery bill of which the latter is basically free at some restaurants.
One of the benefits of using sites like EasyAppetite to buy food in Nigeria is that it eliminated the need for you to go out in search of food and so saves you gas and traffic. It also helps you avoid wasting time queuing at restaurants especially during rush hour when a lot of people want to eat.
If you eat a particular meal everyday or several times in a week, it would be a smart thing to buy in bulk and save the rest in a fridge for other days. You can always reheat the food within 5 minutes using a microwave. If your food also arrives cold, you can also reheat it with a microwave at full power in 2 minutes.
Personally I don't like eating food that is not served hot and so at times food delivered might be hot and at time it might not be but you are always at liberty to reheat it using a microwave at your home or office.
Ordering for food with EasyAppetite is really easy as all you need to do is:
- Enter your location
- Choose a restaurant
- Selec your meal
- Choose toe checkout
- SMS and calls will be made to your phone
- Make payment when your food is delivered
It is that easy to eat.
