A couple months ago, I noticed that my local diner (Bedford Park Cafe) had a SeamlessWeb logo on the door. I was pretty excited, since I didn’t realize that the online delivery conduit was working its way into the Bronx.
For anyone not familiar with SeamlessWeb, it’s a website that allows you to order food online from multiple restaurants. (You don’t even have to talk to anyone on the phone!) It works best in Manhattan, where most restaurants and fast food chains are using it. When I used to work near Wall Street, I would have days that were so busy, that it was great to be able to go online and order food quickly. Plus, you can pay and tip online. No cash, no problem.
