GrubHub: Every restaurant at the click of a Button


I think one of my most used websites when it comes to food, other than restaurants’ websites, is GrubHub. This website is seriously an invention from god. I’ll never forget the first time I found out about GrubHub. A friend and I had just gotten in from a night on the town in the Wrigley Ville neighborhood in Chicago and it was like 3am. I was so hungry and was craving something specific, Jalapeno poppers and tacos. Weird combination, so I’ve been told. I was at her place which was a neighborhood I wasn’t familiar with at all and she doesn’t eat past 8pm so she had no clue which restaurants would be open at 3am. She gave me her laptop and told me to go to GrubHub.com. I put in her address, looked for places that were open and delivered, then searched for jalapeno poppers and tacos on their menu. Luckily, there was one place about a mile away from her house that completely fit my criteria and said that they could have my order to me in 30 minutes. This food was like a life saver and I have been an advocate for GrubHub since that night. At GrubHub.com you can search by category such as fine dining or diner, by type of food such as Mexican Cuisine or Italian Food, or by a specific dish like I did with my jalapeno poppers and tacos. The site is very simple and quick. You don’t have to just search in your neighborhood, you can search for restaurants in an entire city if you wish. I believe it is an excellent tool for anyone who’s looking for a place to eat.
