Have you ever wanted to find a takeaway restaurant when you’re travelling?
Even when you are travelling with kids and staying in self-contained accommodation (like we did in Sydney) with a kitchen, who wants to cook every night when you’re on holidays?
Then there are the nights when the thought of trying to eat out with kids is too much, all you want to do is stay in your room and have someone deliver a meal to you.
Well now there is a way to find a local restaurant that will deliver to you. It’s called Menulog. Last week they kindly offered me a voucher to try out this service.
My experience finding a takeaway with Menulog
So I logged into Menulog HERE
I typed in my suburb and up popped a selection of restaurants. I could even narrow the selection down by choosing which cuisine I preferred. I chose Indian and up came the King of Taste India a restaurant down the road I had been meaning to try.
Once I selected a restaurant I could easily navigate their menu.
This is brilliant when you don’t know a restaurant and their menu. It is so difficult trying to order (over the phone) from a menu you don’t know.
As I ordered my dishes I even got to choose whether I wanted mild, medium or hot.
If you change your mind it is just a matter of clicking the X and the item is removed from your order.
Once I had finished I clicked “place your order” and filled in the payment details.
A text was sent to me within a matter of minutes confirming my order and delivery time. I also received an email advising me of my order details including what I had ordered and a contact phone number for any problems.
Our food arrived exactly on time.
I thoroughly enjoyed the food and not having to cook.
Just to let you know Menulog also have an App (available through iTunes and Google Play) you can download making it perfect for when you are away from home.
Do you think Menulog is a great option for finding a takeaway restaurant near you?

I love the idea! When we were travelling down the centre, it was hard trying to find takeaway in Alice Springs. It’s too big to just drive around, but looking online was tricky. This is a great idea so long as it’s got a good range to choose from.
I have to admit Jess if you want more range to chose from if you click the pick-up option you got a lot more choice in restaurants, but you still ordered online just the same.
What a fabulous idea! I should have tried this when we were in Tasmania but it never occurred to me! I’ve used menulog before to order takeaway here at home! It’s fantastic! 🙂
Yes Min it would certainly helps taking the guess work out finding a takeaway when you are away.
