People who have ailing parents, cannot cook or have no help, can make use of this new app feature to get the desired home-style food or “ghar jaisa khana”.

Here’s where you can find home style mini-menus (aka ‘ghar jaisa khana’) on the zomato app. For everyone whose parents are struggling with health, cannot cook, or have no help – please order for them, or even better, teach them how to use the zomato app. 🙏🏻 (2/3)

“We have added this feature to locations covering ~85% of our order volume. We are adding more such mini menus to existing and new locations on war footing. To all our restaurant partners who were quick to respond and do this with us, a big thank you!” Goyal further wrote.

Only reason ordering 99% time from @zomatoin since years is because of this guy @deepigoyal . Simple and always comes out with great initiative.
This is not buttering, but genuine feedback from what we as customer experience with #Zomato. Keep up good work and win our stomach

Earlier, the food aggregator app also launched a priority delivery service whereby one can mark the food order as “COVID-19 emergency”. The company urged customers to treat the feature “as an ambulance” and not “misuse it”.
