Your Friday night take away just got better. Last year we covered Super Marmite and other services that enable people to sell extra portions of food with their friends.
This year, Frank Hannon, an ex-chef has has taken a similar approach but has gone gourmet.
Friday Night Take Out is a service run by Hannon who prepares a big meal of good seasonal produce every Friday and delivers portions of it around the neighborhood.
At the beginning of each week, he will put up on his blog what’s on offer (this week it’s minestrone soup) and people can place their orders via email or text.
If anyone has made a New Year’s resolution around eating better or eating out less, this totally doesn’t count as eating out – and you’re eating seasonably as well as going easy on the meat (veggie dishes can be requested).
