Planning to Retire Soon!

If you are planning to retire in the Philippines soon, I suggest you visit several excellent websites on pro's and cons of retiring in the Philippines. However if you want to retire in the provinces, where life is simple, standard of living cheaper, less traffic congestion and pollution, availability of fresh seafood and vegetables compared to the big cities, my island province is the place for you! If this is your first time in my site, welcome. Some of the photos and videos on this site, I do not own. However, I have no intention on the infringement of your copyrights.

My Dependence on Food Delivery Services-Will the Lord Answer My Prayers Today?

This morning both PA and GA turned blue. Biden has been leading AZ and NV since Tuesday. Biden official victory is on the Horizon! Good Bye Serial Liar Trump!   Now let's talk about Food Delivery services in my neighborhood!

The last couple of months I have been using food delivery services from three companies- Postmates, Doordash and Grubhub. Postmates have more free delivery promotions, so I used them often. The other food delivery services, I used when I ordered depend on the kind of food and restaurant they are associated with. For example if I have a craving for grilled lamb, I used Grubhub.

In my area, I could order almost all kinds of ethnic food food except for Filipino dishes. I  have ordered Chinese, Vietnamese, Mexican, Italian, Fast Food, Sandwiches, Fried Chicken and Japanese Dishes using Postmates and Doordash. I have ordered Indian, Persian and Armenian dishes via Grubhub. For details here are the link to the three food delivery companies active in my neighborhood.


1. Postmates is an American company that offers local delivery of restaurant-prepared meals and other goods. As of February 2019, Postmates operates in 2,940 U.S. cities. The service relies on mobile phone applications and their Global Positioning System capabilities to match inventories and consumer demand. 

Founded: May 1, 2011
CEO: Bastian Lehmann (2011–)
 
2. DoorDash Inc. is an American on-demand prepared food delivery service founded in 2013 by Stanford students Tony Xu, Stanley Tang, Andy Fang and Evan Moore, who departed and is now a partner at Khosla Ventures.
CEO: Tony Xu (2013–)
Founded: July 2013
 
3. Grubhub Inc. is an American online and mobile prepared food ordering and delivery platform that connects diners with local restaurants. The company is based in Chicago, Illinois and was founded in 2004.
Customer service: 1 (877) 585-1085
CEO: Matt Maloney (2004–)
 
These services are convenient but could be expensive. I try to use free delivery promos and ads. But if you have the time and want to save, order line or by phone and just pick up your order curbside.  My favorite dish is Grilled Loin lamb from our nearby Armenian Restaurant.
