After a hard week in the trenches at work, unmotivated to cook at home, I did the unthinkable; phoned in for "takeout." On my first try, I used Grubhub, the local-focused delivery app. Where I live in Queens (Sunnyside) that can mean spotty offerings. Ended up with tacos and a torta, which weren't bad.  I was even able to request Mexican Coke, which is less sweet and tastes like the original favorite.

On my second try, I used a newer app called Caviar NY. As the name infers, it offered something "better" from local restaurants in Brooklyn as well as Queens. I ordered a pizza from Motorino. If you're not in the mood to travel, or just yearn for a "night in" with food and Netflix, it works. Though as a chef, to me it's still "takeout." Photos below capture what I ordered.
