Great idea, looking forward to seeing this take off!

This app connects you to great food from local chefs all around you. I've had some of the best meals since moving to my city thanks to this app. As someone who doesn't cook, I'm constantly paying high delivery fees for cold food that underwhelms- this solved all of that! I'm looking forward to this growing in popularity, both for more meal availability in my neighborhood as well as to giving me the opportunity to try many different cuisines. I love it.

Awesome concept! Excited to see it grow.

My good friend recommended I download this app because he got approved as a cook for it and the concept seemed awesome. I just completed my first transaction (with a stranger) and it went very well. There are a few areas for improvement but I didn’t let it dock my rating because I am so impressed with the concept and functionality. The ordering process was easy, the channels of communication between myself and the cook were available and clear. The food I received was very good and the post-sale flow was easy and, theoretically, seamless. The one hiccup I did encounter was that there seemed to be some lag in the order fulfillment during the food exchange and immediately afterwords which left me a little unsure about whether the transaction went through correctly. I’m chalking it up to growing pains of a new app. It could very well have been user error since it was my first time using it. I will definitely be using this app a lot more and am excited for its growth.

Developer Response ,

Hey Woody! Awesome, we're glad you're enjoying Shmeal! ❤ Thanks for the feedback. After the cook gives you your meal, they have to go into the app and confirm that the meal was served. They don't always do this immediately after service. Hope that explains the lag! We'll look to improve this in future versions.

Such a great app!

I get super busy a lot of times - between being a mom, working, taking care of home, running errands and all those other things - life gets crazy. As much as I would love to be in the kitchen every day, it’s just not reality. This app gave me the ability to still have good home cooked meals, from all over the world, and not feel guilty about having to “eat out.”Each day of the week there are different things being offered in different parts of the city; there is so much to choose from and getting a chance to meet the cooks is always a pleasure! I’ve had the opportunity to try so many good international dishes! The best part - the prices are reasonable as well! Love Shmeal!
