Delivery!

Don't want cooking? Well,  all restaurants are closed since October, open only for take away and deliveries.
 Delivery companies take 30% of the food you order from struggling restaurants... Capitalism. I don't use them, I prefer take away or cooking myself. Ubereats and other vultures? NO WAY! My money goes to the few open restaurants. Directly.
