What's your favourite food delivery option?
What's your favourite food delivery option?
Whether it's too wet to bother, you're feeling lazy or you're too hungover to face the outside, what's your go to food delivery business or meal.
One quick and cheap option is Pizza 5 but for a good Pizza I go with Limoncello. I've been left disappointed by many options. Maybe I should try a curry? (At least they travel well.)
EDIT: Forgot my other staple delivery which is Fatboy subs - reliably good quality.

I am hungry. My gas has run out. My apartment is too difficult to find/requires my getting dressed to go downstairs to meet a delivery person. The best delivery option would be via drone (able to navigate the plethora of power lines and internet cables) that could recognise a painted target on my outside apartment wall, take a key from a hidden spot, open the balcony door, let itself in, find the kitchen, get a plate and cutlery, bring it all to me on the couch and pour me a wine.

I don't use home delivery because I hate the awkwardness of standing in the street looking like a phony while waiting for the guy who has been waiting for me in the wrong place only for him to show up angry with cold food and huffing at me for not giving any tip.
I even pick up my own packages from the DHL office because at least I know where I am and that I'm on the right way. It also saves me the trouble of not having my mansion pointed at by someone saying "oooh, loy nas! muoy kai pon maan bong? oooh, la aah! oooh wow".

Let's make this a serious thread. I'd also be interested in hearing a few options. I almost never get delivery. I've had Java delivered maybe two or three times before (I know, I know), and I think Domino's a few times as well. I should probably get some delivery more often as I'm damn lazy but can never think of many options so just get takeaway from a few of my usual spots. Problem is that I want my food quick. I usually cook but when I don't I tend to be really hungry and want an immediate fix. Let's get some delivery suggestions.

Same here. I got my first delivery ever after 4 years in this house about a month ago, but that required me getting my son's friend on the phone to the driver to explain where we were. It was from Brooklyn, and about a week later I heard they stopped doing deliveries.violet wrote: My apartment is too difficult to find....
Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
The only delivery I get is sausage bacon and mince from smokey dah boar, so obviously my favourite option. I always have a reasonable stock of steak, duck chicken and various other foods and always a good selection of wine . If I don't go out to eat at the "unmentionable restaurant" or Sonoma I cook at home. I really cant imagine the horror of getting ready cooked food delivered. I think I can make a pizza "from scratch" faster than I could get one delivered and at least it would be Pizza Napoletana STG (ok I am exaggerating a little here)
I once ordered a cheeseburger from Showbox (to be fair, it was my 2nd night living in PP) through 'Your Phnom Penh'.
1 hour later 2 boxes arrive. One contained fries, the other 2 halves of a bun, a slice of cheese, and a plastic bag with condiments. No burger at all.
YPP finally answered the phone 2 hours later and offered to deliver the missing component. I took the credit option.

Sher-e-Punjab for delivery - curry travels better than most other food types, and I'm out in the sticks of Toul Kork. Best pizza option I've found out that way is Aria d'Italia, but pretty much stopped eating pizza so that's quite a rarity.

Pretty sure food will be next. No, it won't do the key thing, but it can leave stuff on your balcony for you.

A friend of mine posted the question on facebook a few months back: "What is your favorite dish to order for delivery in PP?" Here were some of the answers:
"Taste of middle east- chicken tabsi and hummus"
"Brooklyn - Large stella or cheese pizza"
"Taste budz for biryani
"Burritos from Taqueria Corona are stars!"
"My fav discounted dishes are either the chicken schwarma wrap from hummus house ($3) or the steamed vegetarian Momo dumplings from Kathmandu kitchen ($3.50) or the $4 Brown Cuban sandwich." This comment was followed by: "Chicken Schwarma wrap is my all time favorite. Purchased the most." and "we are on the same page - I was going to say both falafel wrap from Hummus House and momos from Kathmandu kitchen / eggplant or chicken tikki masala from Sher-i-Punjab"
"Barbacoa bowl from Cocina cartel , butter chicken Flavors of India( make sure u order rice it doesn't come w it), enchiladas Taqueria Corona, Cuban sandwich Brooklyn pizza, pork quesadilla no mushrooms Farm to Table"
"Charcuterie: Mortadella and Tallegio cheese delivered by Delimarket.asia"
"I love the East side calzone from BROOKLYN PIZZA + BISTRO and everything from Taste of Middle East, mostly baba ghanouj and hummus, vegetarian platter from Hummus House..."
"(1) Bacon egger, from Joma
(2) 3-for-2 Sunday pizza, from pizza5
(3) pepperoni & cheese garlic bread, from Eden's"
"Parmesan chicken with rague vegetable from Eleven one kitchen!"
"It seems that a few of our go-to's are obviously other's favorites as well, including the Veg Momos at Kathmandu (along with their excellent biriyani and other dishes), Hummus House (their fish wrap is very good). Also, the cold noodles and side of gyoza lunch deal from Sesame Noodle, the Chee Tan Mien Soup from Chinese Noodle House (the one on St 130), and the veggie amok from Eleven One Kitchen."
"Backyard Cafe for really yummy healthy eats - my faves are Abundance Bowl or Pumpkin/Red Pepper sandwich; Fat Boy Subs does a great hoagie-style sandwiches of all kinds and they are SO FAST to deliver; Limoncello for the Tirolese pizza (gorgonzola, speck, etc) and other awesome pizza/pasta if you're near Riverside"
