Inspiration

There is a lot of friction between hunger and getting to order food. You may just need to order your favorite dish to be delivered at a specified time, yet user has to go through their order history or search for the favorite meal they had last evening; look for the least delivery time. Instead, what if a smart ordering system could do all this for the user. We can ease the ordering friction by figuring out what dish the user may want at a particular time or just with the functionality where user could just speak what they want e.g. the dish they had last Wednesday.
