Zulzi - Groceries now now, not just now! - App, Promo Code & 15 min delivery! @Zulzi_SA #ZulziSA

Hi Guys,

I came across the Zulzi app at the Buy Local Summit and Expo as they were celebrating a lot of local talent and entrepreneurs. There was a lucky spin wheel where when I rotated I got to try again but they allowed me to spin the same again and got the goodies bag. I totally loved the app and ordered the products using the app and they came really fast to my home. I went to pick up my kid from play way school and by the time I came back the guy was waiting for me at the gate. 

The app has much better pricing and it's almost similar to what you get from any of the bigger groceries stores. On the other apps, you will see that the prices are increased by some margins and everything is expensive whereas on this one there is some discount that's offered on some of the grocery items. The category of products ranges from batteries to veggies to fruits to milk to pens to medicines and so much more. I really fell in love with this app and the delivery that's being told. I also enquired the ladies at the expo that it takes 15 min to pick up the random stuff I am going to order and by the thirty minutes' time, I had all the random stuff in my hands in the Sandton area. 

I am also sharing an R100 code (PROUDZA) for you to order anything above ZAR 250 on your first order on the Zulzi app in various suburbs in Johannesburg, Centurion and Pretoria. Enjoy and let me know your experience! There is free delivery above ZAR 350 and otherwise the same is charged at ZAR 35 only. 

The app is available on all three smartphone app stores mainly - Huawei App Gallery, Google Playstore and Apple Appstore. 

As I told you about my random items, let me tell you about what I ordered - Energizer CR2025 coin battery, Baby Soft Toilet Rolls 2 ply White, Brut Deo Alaska, Brut Deo Original, Axe Deodorant, Mister Sweet Speckled Eggs, Bakers Mini Cheddars. I can't think of even me going to a store and coming out to pick up all these things in just 15 minutes. 

I will definitely recommend the app for your first order at least using the code PROUDZA and then you can decide the future orders yourself. 

Cheers!!!

5 Reasons Why @HuaweiZA #MeeTime is the Video Calling App of Choice

Hi Friends, 

Before the pandemic hit, video calls were only really something we did with long-distance friends and family. Video calls with clients were also rare unless they worked in another region or country. These days, however, many of us are on several video calls a day, and even as life slowly starts to return to normal, it’s likely that we are going to continue to use video calling platforms much more in the post-Covid world than we ever did in the pre-Covid one.

As you weigh up the options of the video platforms available to you, there are several reasons why Huawei’s MeeTime should be your video app of choice. Here are the top five:

1. Full HD video calls

Unlike any of its competitors, Huawei’s MeeTime supports full HD video calls of up to 1080 pixels between Huawei devices, including smartphones, tablets and smartwatches. It manages to maintain this excellent quality even under poor network conditions, keeping you connected wherever you go.

2. Share screen functionality

MeeTime features a new two-way screen sharing function that allows you to share information while you chat with friends and family. This makes the experience even more real, almost as though you were talking face to face. You can use this functionality to ask friends for advice while you shop, or to help a friend with a technical glitch. Professionals will enjoy using it to share ideas with clients, partners and colleagues.

3. Seamless connectivity

If you find yourself in an area with a poor network, MeeTime uses super-resolution technology to compensate for video quality in real-time. It also adapts to bandwidth changes quickly and easily, giving you a consistently smooth and seamless calling experience.

4. Low-light performance

Poor lighting conditions won’t be a problem with MeeTime. It’s equipped to perform well even in low-light environments. Thanks to Huawei’s facial recognition and optimisation algorithms, you can chat with friends who are several time zones away without any worry.

5. Total privacy

Every audio and video MeeTime call is also end-to-end encrypted. This means you are guaranteed privacy whenever you are on a call with friends or family.

HUAWEI MeeTime is available on selected Huawei devices running on EMUI 9.1 or EMUI 11. To download MeeTime, you can go to HUAWEI AppGallery. You can also find more information here.

#TheLifesWayReviews - #OsmoMobile3 Gimbal @DJIGlobal #7YearsofTheLifesWay

Hi Friends,

DJI Osmo Mobile 3 is the latest smartphone gimbal from the house of DJI who are world leaders in making your videography experience take up a notch higher. Gimbal not only helps to stabilize your videos but also you can be part of your own selfies beyond your extended arm and can track your movements to make your vlogging a natural process. I bought DJI Osmo Mobile 2 and it was there without being opened for 2 months before I opened the same on my birthday this year on 22nd July and soon I found out that the new one is getting launched so I returned the Osmo Mobile 2 to wait for the Osmo Mobile 3. I got the chance to be part of the special invite to attend the review unit takeaway kind of launch event for 2 weeks. These are certain things that made me immediately fell in love with this gimbal. Let's check out one by one - 

1. Portability - DJI Osmo Mobile 2 which I took to the Photo and Film Expo this year at Kyalami was difficult to carry even in your carry bag. The DJI Osmo Mobile 3 is not only foldable but also weights less. This can be folded and you can just put it in your backpack or jeans back pocket for immediate retrieval. Also, a locking mechanism ensures that your gimbal is ready to be carried with ease. The Gimbal weights 405 grams and with the tripod that comes in combo package it will be around 450 grams and with smartphones on the top, it will be around 700 grams in total. If you buy the combo package, you will get a hard case to safeguard your gimbal against any shocks and breaks but it won't be able to hold the tripod inside the hard-shelled case.

2. Switching Orientations - Portrait mode was introduced in DJI Osmo Mobile 2 but in Mobile 3 version, it can be done with a press of a button and your capturing world can be turned from landscape mode to portrait and vice versa. Even changing from rear camera to front camera is just some clicks of a single button and you are ready to start vlogging or taking selfies. Mounting a smartphone is made easy and you are ready to shoot videos in no time. Any smartphones having a maximum weight of 225 grams is good enough for the device. 

3. Charging the smartphone - Earlier it was difficult to charge your smartphone while in use on Mobile 2 as the smartphone charging socket was hidden in one of the two arms but with DJI Osmo Mobile 3, there is only a single arm leaving the phone sockets open for your consumption. You can easily attach your charging cable and withdraw power from the gimbal as it works as a power bank too. Also, the gimbal has a battery life of 15 hours as marked on the packaging and can be fully charged in around 2.5 hours. The Li-ion battery capacity is 2450 mAh which is enough to charge any smartphone.  

4. Gesture Controls and Active Tracking - Some of the new features introduced are Active tracking 3.0 where the new gimbal can track your movements and keep the smartphone rear camera looking towards you. The same is just activated in the settings and then touching the smartphone screen to focus on a person immediately and track him or her. Gesture control is a feature usually seen in a smartphone selfie camera where you show your palm or peace sign and picture countdown timer starts.

5. Panoramic Rotation - The best part of DJI Osmo Mobile 3 is that it can be used without installing any app on your smartphone. Any smartphone can be installed on the arm of the gimbal and then you can scroll the smartphone camera from one end to another and also you can control the speed of rotation. Huawei also introduced a collaboration with Osmo Mobile 3 during its launch of the Mate 30 series smartphone. The panoramic rotation helps you take great video shots at the top of the mountains or at the beach and the applications are huge. 

6. DJI Mimo App -  A new smartphone application has been introduced for Mobile 3 gimbal where it enhances the capabilities of your videography with pre-installed programmed modes to shoot 10 seconds or more video in 13 fun templates. Story mode creates awesome cinematic videos ready to be shared on your social media channels online. This is the place where you will spend most of the time learning, editing and sharing.

7. Next Level Photography and Videography - The new gimbal can take timelapse, hyper-lapse and motion lapse with ease and without making you sweat much. Also the slow-motion is so cinematic that you will fall in love with the same. Also with one touch, you can shoot various funky videos where the editing will be done by the Gimbal DJI Mimo App. 

Overall this is something you should have if you are into smartphone videography or photography and wants to take it a notch higher. Also, the gimbal will introduce stabilization to your artificial image-stabilized smartphone camera and you will definitely see better results. I see it as a huge potential to make you an amateur YouTuber as with the combo package, you can install the gimbal on the active tracking version and start talking to the camera and a video will be ready to be shared in no time wherever you are in the whole world. Go check it out!

Access to the Right Technological Tools is a Key Enabler of #Solopreneurship @HuaweiZA

Hi Friends, 

Over the past decade, South Africa has seen a sharp increase in the number of people earning an income outside of formal employment. This is driven in part by our country’s high unemployment rate, which currently sits at 29.1%, and is also due to the global move towards a mobile workforce. Solopreneurship is a specific kind of self-employment and it relies heavily on technology. Different technological tools enable these individuals to run their operations from anywhere they choose and be gainfully rewarded for combining their creativity with technology.

What is a solopreneur?

The term ‘solopreneur’ is often mistaken for ‘entrepreneur’ but there is a key difference between these two terms. A solopreneur is an individual who singlehandedly manages his or her business. Whereas an entrepreneur can hire additional staff to work for them, a solopreneur works alone. Solopreneurs also usually run virtual businesses, providing services where their physical presence is not required, such as freelance writing, online learning, and software development.

App developers, who specialize in software creation and programming, are one of the most common types of solopreneurs. As software engineers, much of their time is dedicated to understanding software algorithms and codes. They create apps that perform specific tasks, address consumer pain points, or simply provide entertainment. App developers play an essential role in ensuring that technology can meet all of our rapidly developing needs as our world becomes more fast-paced.

Huawei is providing platforms that allow solopreneurs to thrive

The success of app developers is driven by their access to certain technological tools such as cloud storage, location services, and account login functionality. However, these tools can come at a great financial cost. It is for this reason that Huawei recently launched its developer programme globally as well as in South Africa, which gives developers access to use the Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) ecosystem to build mobile apps without the financial burden of paying for app building infrastructure. Globally, more than 1.07 million developers have registered in HMS Ecosystem, more than double the number of last year, giving these developers access to providing apps for Huawei’s 570 million active users.

HMS incorporates Huawei’s chip, device, and cloud capabilities and integrates a set of HMS core services (HMS Core), tools, and platforms for IDE development and testing, as well as HMS apps, including HUAWEI AppGallery, HUAWEI Browser, and HUAWEI Video. HMS, together with third-party apps and services on Huawei devices, forms the HMS Ecosystem, an intelligent mobile internet ecosystem.

A 360-degree approach to empowering app developers

HMS provides unified access to the distribution of apps for all devices, spurring developer innovation in the process. The HMS ecosystem features all-scenario capability openness, global smart distribution, full lifecycle operations management, and comprehensive incentive and support mechanisms, which form an important part of Huawei’s all-scenario intelligent ecosystem.

In order to encourage more developers to integrate qualitative apps to HMS Ecosystem, Huawei has now announced a global investment in its developer programme of $1 billion through its Shining Star Programme. The investment is targeted at incentivising and accelerating global developer innovation aiming to cover skills development and training, infrastructure and technical support as well as marketing support once the apps are published.

As people continue to make alternative work arrangements based on solopreneurship, technology will continue to shape the success of solopreneurs and help drive our economy. Initiatives such as the Huawei Developer Programme are essential in ensuring South Africans can thrive as tech solopreneurs.

App developers with a completed app can visit https://developer.huawei.com/consumer/en/, or contact the HUAWEI SA Business Development team on developersa@huawei.com to find out how HUAWEI can support them.

Did You Know #UberEats Has These Cool Features? @Uber_RSA #SmartphoneApp

Hi Friends, 

Uber Eats has broken the common stereotype of what food delivery service is. With new useful features being introduced such as in-app messaging, which makes it convenient for eaters to communicate with their delivery partner seamlessly, they are able to deliver on their promises of selection, speed, and service.

In-app messaging is not the only feature to make ordering easier. Here are some of the other unique technology features built into the Uber Eats app:

Personalised recommendations - What do other eaters love? Uber Eats uses machine learning to help surface recommendations such as popular options in the surrounding area based on past orders, 30-minute delivery options, and details like time of day and delivery location.

Filter for the right food - Are you a vegetarian? The app allows eaters to select meal options that suit their lifestyle whether you are a vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free there is something for everyone. The app also allows eaters to look up restaurants according to specific criteria like speed, price, dish information and average prep time.

Thumbs up or thumbs down? - The same way Uber uses the five-star rating for driver-partners, the Uber Eats app provides rates of restaurants so eaters can see how others in their city rate their service. Eaters can also rate a specific meal with a thumbs up or thumbs down, which helps the restaurant to improve its experience.

Order customization - Not a fan of onions or tomatoes? No worries! The app allows eaters to let the restaurant know what ingredients not to include.

Customise the drop-off location - Stuck in a meeting? Eaters can provide specific instructions to delivery partners, for example, telling them to leave the food order at the reception.

Schedule orders - Do you have guests coming over and haven’t prepared food? No sweat, the app allows eaters to plan ahead and make orders in advance. eaters are able to schedule an order anytime up to an hour before the desired delivery window–and as far as a week out.

Order tracking - Wondering what’s happening with your food? Eaters can select “track your order” in-app and watch in real-time as their food is prepared, picked up, and delivered to them.

Simultaneously use Uber and Uber Eats - eaters can pop open the Uber Eats app while in their Uber to the office or home to order food before they arrive. This way eaters can find their food waiting for them when they arrive.

In-app support - Yes, mistakes can happen such as your food arriving cold. In this instance, eaters can use this feature to get a prompt response to their queries in the shortest time possible. The in-app support “Help” service can be accessed within the Uber Eats app by tapping on your profile icon on the bottom right of the screen, then tapping the help icon which will provide you options of issues you can select in order for it to resolve. This helps provide feedback to the restaurants to ensure they improve their service.

Uber Eats has transformed the way traditional restaurant work and are fostering experiments that offer an insight into the future of food delivery.

About Uber
Uber Eats is an on-demand food delivery service powered by Uber. Uber Eats partners with the best local restaurants to get people the food they want - delivered faster. Uber Eats is currently in over 200 cities in over 21 countries and launching more every week. To request a meal, download the free application for Android, iPhone or register at www.ubereats.com.

Your guide to Becoming A Pro-Rider - 8 #Uber Features You Didn't Know @Uber_RSA

Hi Friends, 

Whether you’re new to Uber, or an Uber VIP, there might be a few features that you don’t know about. We’re here to tell and remind you about some of Uber’s key features you may have missed, which will make each ride more reliable and convenient than the last.

Below are the 8 features you might have missed:

 
Multiple destinations - stops when you need them
Whether you’re heading out for a weekend away and want to grab your friend en route to the airport, or going home after dinner and need to drop off the party on the way, it’s easier than ever to pick up and drop off your friends while on a trip. Uber has introduced a feature that makes it easy for you to add multiple stops along your route, which means you no longer have to edit your destinations while on a trip.

To access the feature, choose your adventure, tap the “+” next to the “Where To” destination box to add a stop(s) at any point before or during your trips. You can also add, change or remove the destination from the on the trip screen accessible on the app.

Uber Gift cards - a gift that will never collect dust
Whether it’s a ride across the city or your favorite Uber Eats meal delivered at Uber speed, we’re making it even easier to get what you want, when you want it with Uber Gift cards.

Gift cards are available at Checkers, Shoprite and Pick n Pay stores nationwide and are available in R100 and R200 denominations and are directly redeemable through the app. How much easier could it get?

In-app support - access to 24/7 support all over the world.
Did you know you can get a prompt response to your queries at the tip of your fingers? You have access to global network of support centres to provide 24/7 support all over the world.

Whether you are having a technical issue, you were charged an incorrect fee or left something in a vehicle, your issue can get resolved in the in-app help section, which can be accessed within your Uber app by tapping the menu icon (three bars) in the top left-hand corner of your app. You can then proceed to navigate and tap on the “help” icon, scroll down and report the issue at hand.

Compliments - Make someone’s day at the tap of a button!
We want to give you the opportunity to thank and recognize your driver for the things they do to make your experience more memorable and fun. When you leave a compliment ㄧ say, for your driver expertly navigating winding city streets, or for simply striking up a great conversation, a notification will show up on the driver’s home screen to let them know.

In-app chat - making connections easier
Every great ride starts with the pickup, which is why we have added a way for you and drivers to chat right in the Uber app.

To chat with your driver en route to collect you, go to the Uber feed and tap “contact” and then “chat.” When your driver receives a chat from you, it will be read aloud to them. Drivers can acknowledge receipt with one tap to their app to send a “thumbs up” to your app.

uberX VIP - we’re making your loyalty count
We believe that our top riders deserve a top Uber experience. This is why we launched uberX VIP, which allows a select few in South Africa to unlock a unique vehicle view!

UberX VIP matches loyal riders with top-rated driver-partners in your city, giving you the chance to enjoy premium service at no extra cost. To qualify as an uberX VIP rider all you need to do is take at least 20 trips a month and maintain a rating of 4.5 or more.

Schedule a ride - plan ahead
Whether you’re catching an early morning flight, going to an appointment, or planning the perfect date, you’ll have one less thing to worry about. Schedule a ride up to 30 days in advance to 15 minutes ahead of time for the most important events in your calendar.

Here is how:

• Tap the car icon to schedule a ride.
• Set your pickup date, time, location, destination, ride type, and get a fare estimate.
• Confirm the details of your upcoming trip and tap Schedule. Edit or cancel anytime before your ride.
• Enjoy your ride - We’ll send you reminders the day of the trip and notify you when your ride is on the way. We’ll also let you know if pricing changes.

Request a ride for a loved one
We’ve all been there. Those moments when your grandmother needs a ride to the shopping mall while you’re stuck at work. Or, the last minute Friday night request from your friend for a ride home from the airport.

The good news? You can easily request a ride for a loved one directly through the app! When you set the pick-up location a fair distance away from your current location, we’ll automatically ask whether the ride is for a family member or friend. You can then select the rider from your address book, set their destination, and request the ride on their behalf.

Once the driver is on the way, the rider will receive a text message with the driver’s details and a link to track the driver’s route. They’ll even be able to contact the driver directly. The driver will see the rider’s name, and be able to contact the rider directly, too.

 

Cheers!!!

The Rise And Rise Of The #Smartphone @SamsungMobileSA #SmartphoneApps

Hi Friends,

Can you even imagine your life without your smartphone? It hasn’t taken long for these must-have devices to become an essential and integral part of daily life. It’s estimated that as much as 58.7% of the world use smartphones.[i] But how have they changed the way we do things?

Well, just 10 years ago, most people couldn’t conceive of having an actual conversation with a mobile device. Now it’s common to have an intricate chat with your very own built-in personal assistant, like Bixby. From getting directions and restaurant recommendations to dictating e-mails or ordering flowers online for your mom, smartphones and their assistants can do just about anything.

Today most people simply can’t imagine life without one – smartphones have evolved to such an extent that they’ve moved way beyond mere communication to being a constant companion that’s geared to learn your unique needs and make your life easier to navigate. The millions of apps that can be downloaded and used can help you track your health, control your connected appliances, give you directions, remind you of appointments and even edit videos or build websites.

Doing business on a mobile device has gone beyond sitting in a coffee shop making endless phone calls. E-mails, internet research, design and invoicing are all now possible. Capturing images and videos on the go has never been easier and in-built security features like Knox make it entirely safe to conduct business wherever you are. When it comes to education, learners not only have access to the internet but also to the world’s best teachers and experts, through their devices.

According to a survey, almost half of Smartphone users use their phones to access health-related services.[ii] Whether it’s to use an app to monitor glucose levels or verify a prescription, a fitness tracker or healthy recipe finder, smartphones have impacted the way people interact with their own health and wellness.

Social media accounts for almost two hours each day, with the top apps being YouTube, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, and Twitter.[iii]

In 2012, the editor of the website The Next Web, catalogued devices that were made obsolete by smartphones. His list included MP3 players, point-and-shoot digital cameras, GPS, alarm clocks, flashlights, handheld gaming systems, e-readers, voice recorders, dictionaries, infrared remotes and web-conferencing devices. This is a lot longer now.

A recent British poll indicated that using a smartphone to make phone calls doesn’t even reach the top 10 reasons for owning one. The majority of people cited the following regarding their smartphone use: texting – 88%; e-mail – 70%, Facebook – 62%, camera – 61%, reading news – 58%, online shopping - 56%, checking the weather – 54%, WhatsApp – 51%, Banking – 45%, watching videos on YouTube – 42%.[iv]

Craige Fleischer, Vice President of Integrated Mobility say, “Most people don’t realize that as early as 2001, Samsung was already building smartphones – the SPH-1300 came out in October that year. And that was just the beginning of the smartphone rise. From the BlackJack line to the Instinct, which was before Android, to the Omnia with TouchWiz and then the current star of the smartphone show – the Galaxy S line.”

Even with all the incredible tech now in the palm of your hand, the evolution of the smartphone is still in its infancy – technological innovation is consistently moving ahead of the curve, with giants like Samsung leading the race to intuitively address user’s future needs and desires.

@BrandHubb Brings Sharing And Earning #SmartphoneApp #SouthAfrica

Hi Guys,

In pursuit of an app that meets the modern day need and allows users to personally connect with the brands they engage with, BrandHubb is pleased to announce the first app of its kind where connectivity is the key driving force behind the brainchild that interlinks social media and e-commerce which personalises the experience between a user and a brand.

BrandHubb provide users the opportunity to personally follow all of their favourite brands within their social media pool whilst offering brands the same platform to display their products. The app also allows brands to upload video content, post articles and carry out important customer surveys which the user can engage with and choose to share in exchange for redeemable points.

“We believe that if a brand delivers engaging content that is relevant to the user within the users’ ‘purchasing’ frame of mind, the probability to purchase or potential brand consideration will be that much higher,” says BrandHub CEO and Founder, Rob Anderson. “Rewarding users with an effortless and direct call to action by simply choosing to engage with their brand of choice will build an organic and engaging relationship between the two.”

BrandHubb is about the user’s experience and their willingness to engage with brands that offer them something more than just product. This relationship affords the brand the opportunity to reward the loyalty of the user for not only interacting with the content but for sharing it with their friends.

Hey #Joburg #UberEATS Has Arrived @Uber_RSA @UberEATS

Hi Guys,

Joburgers, UberEATS is here! UberEATS was officially launched at Katy’s Palace in Sandton and from Thursday 29 September those in Jozi hungry for a new, reliable way to order tasty meals are already requesting their favourite foods using the UberEATS app.

UberEATS is an on-demand food delivery app powered by Uber, and it’s just as easy and convenient to use as the rides app people know and love. UberEATS partners with only the best local restaurants to get customers the food they want, delivered faster. At launch, UberEATS already offers some of the the best food Jozi has to offer, including meals from the likes of Casalottis, Momo Baohaus, Krunch, Fishmonger and Paul’s Homemade Ice Cream.

“We’re so excited to finally be launching UberEATS in Johannesburg, one of the world’s trendiest food destinations. UberEATS makes life simpler and more satisfying for those who are short on time and with the hustle and bustle in Joburg we know it’s the best city to launch in,” says Alon Lits, General Manager, Uber Sub-Saharan Africa.

The UberEATS app can be downloaded on the app store or through the Uber rides app, and meals can be requested for delivery in Northern Johannesburg from 07am to 10pm, seven days a week with a R20 delivery fee. UberEATS now offers those living in Jozi an alternative way of getting good food in good time, giving Joburgers great food at the touch of a button with no minimum order size.

Lits notes some of the advantages of UberEATS, “What’s great about UberEATS, other than the fact that we’re aiming to get food to “eaters” in the shortest amount of time, is that good restaurants can now expand their business reach, while our delivery partners have access to new flexible economic opportunities. And, for the first time restaurants will be able to use Uber’s data to get feedback from their customers.”

UberEATS couriers will be made up of the best Uber driver-partners in Jozi and eaters can rate their courier as well as the restaurant, by giving them a “thumbs up”, or “thumbs down”, to ensure service stays excellent.

No lines, no waiting, no onions?
That’s right, UberEATS allows customers to customise orders. No onions with that? No worries, just make a note using the app.

Don’t get hangry, get UberEATS!
1. Download the app or go to ubereats.com to find what you’re craving, and we’ll handle the rest.
2. Sign in - you can use your existing Uber account for UberEATS - or create a new one.
3. Tell us where to deliver - add your home, work, or any other address you’d like.
4. Browse local restaurants - search for your favourite local restaurant or try something new.
5. Check out with a tap - simply pay with your card on file. And remember, the delivery fee is R20.
6. Track your order - watch as your order gets picked up and delivered right to your door.

Discounts for new users
First time trying UberEATS? Download the app and enter the promo code at checkout; TryEatsZA on checkout to enjoy up to R100 off your first order. Available for new UberEATS users only.

Outside UberEats initial launch zone?
Don’t worry, this is just the beginning, they will be expanding the delivery area across Gauteng and adding more of your favourite restaurants in the coming weeks.

 

I was part of the media launch at the Katy's Palace and loved the idea of getting my loved food just from a single app with delivery fees of R20. Earlier I have tried other apps and food delivery mechanism in Johannesburg but nothing as reliable as Uber EATS as I can now see where my food is! Till that time, keep kicking your taste buds with the awesome and ever increasing food menu options.

 

Cheers!!!
