How to Satisfy your Cravings at the Comfort of your Home this Rainy Season

Gone is the scorching heat of summer and here comes the rainy season; a season of umbrellas, wet shoes, and traffic. I know some of you are singing "Rain, rain, go away" in your mind right now, wishing for the rain to stop so that you could go on with your planned trips or agenda without difficulty. When it rains, most people would stay indoors rather than getting wet in the rain. I admit I am one of the few people that would prefer to stay indoors during the rainy season, because of this having my cravings satisfied has been troublesome. Also, whenever it is cold and raining I get hungry easily! 

Thanks to modern technology, we can easily do a lot of things online such as movie streaming, shopping and ordering food! This is made possible by the increasing number of mobile apps today offering digital public services like foodpanda. 

What is Food Panda?

Foodpanda is an online food delivery platform that enables users to access a wide variety of restaurants from their mobile phones or desktop computer.

No more wasting time in congested traffics or waiting in line just to have your cravings satisfied, with this you'll have a happy tummy without even breaking a sweat it is just simply a few clicks away.

Here's how to use the app: 

Of course, like all apps out there, you have to download Foodpanda thru the App Store for Apple devices and Google Play for Android devices. Once that is done, you just have to follow these simple steps...

Enter or type in your location. You can tap on the "use my current location" button if ever you want your food to be delivered to your current location or you can also set it to the place where you want the food to be delivered if you're planning to send it to a friend or family member, the app will list down restaurants within the 3-kilometer radius (this is to ensure that the food will be in mint condition upon arrival).

Next step is to choose a restaurant. Foodpanda has over 1,000 partner restaurants in Metro Manila and Cebu. From Japanese, Chinese, American, Mediterranean, or whatever cuisine you’re craving for, foodpanda will be there to satisfy your cravings! You'll never get tired of eating the same type of meals every day! There's plenty to choose from!

Choose from the menu of your restaurant of choice. The prices of the menu items, as well as the minimum order, are shown in the app. You will also be notified about the regarding promos offered by the restaurants. Isn't that great?

Add your desired menu item to your basket. You can go back and add more items to your basket. Note that, for most restaurants, the delivery charge is just 59.00 Pesos no matter how much your total food bill is. The 59 pesos delivery charge is a reasonable price, considering how much time and effort are saved!

In this step you need to ask yourself, "Is this enough to satisfy my cravings?" If you've gotten all that you need for that, just click on the "Proceed to Checkout" button.

The next step is to input your exact delivery address. You can also input specific delivery instructions.

You then have to choose which payment method you prefer. Depending on the

restaurant, foodpanda accepts cash on delivery and online payment via all major credit cards and paypal.

The final step is to check your order details and make sure that everything is correct. Click on "Place Order" and patiently wait for your order to arrive. Good things come to those who wait, right? The app has a timer that automatically starts once you place an order. The default waiting time is 60 minutes after the restaurant has confirmed receipt of your order and if you have other concerns, you can talk to a customer service representative via the Live Chat function both in the app and desktop site. You never have to worry about keeping track of the time that has passed and you can easily address your concern to them! 

That's it! Isn't that a piece of cake?
