We designed app which could grab the user’s attention towards main attraction – the delicious food! The user gets to order lunch and dinner for the day or pre-order for the coming week on the home page itself!

 

Fresh Ingredients, Healthy Food

 An important part of eating healthy is knowing the exact ingredients in a particular dish. Hence, we decided to show everything from meat to vegetables and spices that is used to make the dish a user is ordering.

Pictorial representation of the ingredients helps in grabbing the attention of the user instantly. This also helps people who might be allergic to a particular ingredient.
