Why do customers order fast food online?

I live at Dee Why on the Northern Beaches. Let me tell you there’s no shortage of Restaurants.

As I walk around Dee Why, I notice some Restaurants are always busy. While others just seem like vacant lots they always look empty.

I find it distressing seeing good folk putting their heart n soul into these struggling business.

It takes a lot of commitment, effort & money to run a Restaurant.

So one day as I was walking past a restaurant around the corner from my home. So I was curious, so I stuck my head in to see why it seemed so quiet.

I had got Take Away from them a couple of times. It always tasted good.

So I could not understand why they seem quiet.

As I started talking to the guy behind the counter, I noticed the kitchen was humming along.

It didn't make sense. There was hardly anyone in their restaurant yet the kitchen was going gangbusters.

So pull I the guy aside. "Hey what’s going on?, Why are they so busy?"

He replied,"It’s Tuesday, so most our orders are for Take Away,""

Then it dawns on me, of course, I use the internet to get my Take Aways.

I still get the occasional menu stuffed in my letterbox. Not that I keep them. Otherwise, the menus would wallpaper my fridge.

So I guess I'm not the only one that doesn't keep all these menus.

My Google Search Dee Why Thai

So if I do a Google Search for Thai Restaurant in Dee Why. The first 4 spots belong to menulog.

So I was curious to see how many of the restaurant offered online take AwAy Ordering.

You can book with either Menulog or eatnow.com.au

So it doesn't matter which restaurant I choice I can order online take & even get it delivered.

So if you have a restaurant and you have not jumped onboard online ordering, then you're missing out.

It could be the difference of your restaurant surviving or not.
