I Love Food Panda

Yesterday, I browsed the app called Food Panda. Selected KFC bucket meal to be delivered to my sister's. She was at work yesterday so I wanted to treat the kids. However, I was unable to push through with the order because I fell asleep. Bummer!
So today, I ordered milk tea for the kids. I cannot pin the home address so I booked the school's address. I asked my sister to pick it up there.
The kids were happy and sent me "thank you" message.
I love Food Panda because they have riders nationwide. I am here in Manila but I was able to book food delivery to Pampanga, a province outside Metro Manila.

Food panda works here too. But not sure if it is the most preferred app for food delivery. Swiggy and Zomato are the popular ones.

@jobelbojel Zomato is the most used food delivery app here and the other one is swiggy.

@arunima25 that's good to know. I thought Zomato is only a website reviewing restaurants around the city.

Thank you. They have riders in the provinces I think so it is easier to book using Food Panda compared to Grab and Lalafood.

@jobelbojel It is basically an American company as far as I know. They spread their business all over.

@jobelbojel Food Panda is already bankrupt here, they can't compete with other food service delivery providers.

Oh, so you have Grabfood as well. That is nice to know. Too bad you don't have Food Panda. I like it better that Grabfood.

No, she is not. She used to work in the school as a sweeper. Now she works in Clark in one of the electronics companies.

I used to order there during the strict quarantine times. But now since it's more open i just go to a fast food and eat. Sometimes we do sent take outs to my brothers family.

I just started using the app this month. I like it because I can book food meals outside Manila and addressed to my sister.

I had a very bad experience with Food Panda on my very first order. I was alone then in the house because my wife had a trip outside the province so I ordered something for lunch from Max Chicken at 10:00 AM. My order was confirmed by Panda, however, at past 11, I received a message that my order was cancelled because Max was busy with many orders. I was mad because my order has already confirmed and I even purposely made my order at 10AM because that was the opening time of Robinsons where Max was located. Right there and then I cancelled my registration with Panda.

That is a bad service to cancel one's order. Having many orders is not a valid reason.

Yes they are everywhere. Here in my place near SM City, they are situated just across SM, my village way. Tambay while they are waiting for booking.

They will also have Food Panda in the city here in my province soon... In their FB page, it was stated that Food Panda may start their operations there on March. I wonder if we can also order.. How I wish...
