    I commend the entrepreneurial spirit but only 10 restaurants or so to choose from around citycentre is weak. 80% are pizza as well.

    Grub Burger
    Buff Burger
    Houston BBQ
    Achille's Italian.

    All going live this week.

    Because it's an actual partnership with the restaurant, not just us inflating the prices and doing delivery without permission, it's a longer process.

    But working hard to get more choices!!

    More coming soon! Takes time to do the photoshoot and menu build once they've signed

    But I believe you are talking about inside the loop if you are mentioning most the options being pizza places. We will have Midtown bar and grill, CPK and Fiesta Guadalajara going live soon.

    True partnership with the restaurants. Meaning we don't inflate pricing and they set the expectations. Which equals quicker delivery time. Also group order capabilities allowing multiple people to order and pay from their own phone while only paying 1 delivery charge.

    Just to show what I mean about inflated prices, here is Ruggles on our App and DoorDash.

    Still with the company. I was actually just boarding a plane to Europe when I heard the news. Fun fun ride from my first day when we were in a tiny room the size of my living room inside the Mcnese University Seed Center.

    Congrats on your acquisition by the Houston Rockets owner himself.
