Food, definitely something you can’t live without. I’m all for takeaways from some of my favourite restaurants, but sometimes you just crave the comfort of home cooked food.
Imagine this, you’ve just woken up from your afternoon nap on a Sunday and you open the fridge to find… nothing! Thanks to the horrendous Jakarta traffic, and the hordes of people you’ll encounter at the supermarket, popping out to the grocery store is no simple feat! Alas, the struggle remains, you need fooooooood!! Luckily I’m here to tell you about these websites and apps that will deliver whatever you need right to your doorstep!
Yes, even some chitatos from Alfamart!
P.S. These are perfect for the current COVID-19 situation so you can practice social distancing at home. Make sure to use online payments/tipping to avoid any unnecessary contact!
