There is no free lunch in this world. Food delivery platforms like
Swiggy, Uber and Zomata are not really giving any real discounts. Given below
is the menu card of Ocean of Bakes a popular bakery at Nizam pet crossroads.
The rates at the
bakery are at least 40 or in some cases 50 per cent less than the rates mentioned
in the food delivery platform apps. So end of the day the customer is not
getting any deal at all. Food delivery apps are simply encashing our inherent
impulse behaviour and may I add our laziness to walk, drive and eat at the
restaurant and enjoy the ambience.
Add to that cost the additional tax charged as tax (usually at 10%}),
delivery charges, tip to the delivery boy and annual gold fees, the customer is
ending up paying at least 20% extra! Good for thought. Let us get out and enjoy
food as it should be enjoyed at the restaurant itself along with family and
friends.
