Uber has announced the launch of a new food delivery app UberEATs where citizens can order food from about 300 restaurants in the areas of Madhapur, Kondapur, Gachibowli and Kukatpally with a delivery price of just ₹ 1 from Wednesday onwards with no minimum order!

Tracking facility

It’s very simple to order. Download the app, pitch in your address, check out the meal and place the order after which it can be tracked till it is delivered.

“Hyderabad is the seventh city in the country to be offered this service and we have partnered with all the top eating places,” said Jason Droege, Head of UberEverything and Bhavik Rathod, Head of UberEats.

Actress Rakul Preet Singh made the first order to kick off the food service which, for now, will be available only for the western part of the capital.

“UberEATS has gained great momentum in India which has been one of our fastest growing markets,” said Mr. Droege.

What Uber has already found out based on its database is up to seven lakh plates of the Hyderabadi Dum Pukht biryani everyday and Chicken 65 is the most ordered dish! Besides, Haleem, Mirchi Ka Salan and Irani Chai with Osmania biscuits too are hot cakes!

The mobile food service which started in Los Angles, has been launched in Mumbai in May earlier this year and has earlier been taken to the cities of Delhi, Gurgaon, Bangalore, Chennai and Chandigarh.
