Volvo Cars pioneers two-hour in-car delivery service with Swedish start-up urb-it

A pub delivering Guinness to people's homes during lockdown says it was operating within the law.

Crispy Eggplant Burger

If you're vegan, you can probably count on one hand the number of eateries in the city that cater to your needs while also serving delicious grub. Narrow down the search to just vegan burgers, and you arrive at another figure — nil. But, if you live around Bandra, you're in luck, thanks to a new delivery service called Vegan Burger Kitchen.

Asian-style Sweet Potato and Peanut Burger

The menu currently offers nine burgers, each different from the next, and all made using locally sourced, organic produce.

Being day one of operations, when we call, we're informed that the BBQ Pulled Jackfruit Burger and the Cauliflower and Red Lentil Burger aren't available. On sensing the disappointment in our voice, however, we are promised that it will be available soon enough.

Among the burgers we try, we find two favourites. The first is the Asian-style Sweet Potato and Peanut Burger (Rs 329), where the sweet potato patty pairs beautifully with the creamy soy milk-based Sriracha mayo and Asian slaw. The Crispy Eggplant Burger (Rs 299) is best eaten fresh. The fun lies in biting into the crunchy exterior of the patty — robed in a vegan Thousand Island dressing and pickles — to get to the mushy eggplant that sits inside.

Smoked Black Beans, Mushrooms and Beet Burger

We also enjoy the Smoked Black Beans, Mushrooms and Beet Burger (Rs 299). The patty gets its form and flavour predominantly from the black beans, so if you don't enjoy them, avoid this one. The Unmeat Burger (Rs 329), meanwhile, is an acquired taste. The texture of the wheat protein that makes up the patty is odd and unfamiliar, and the grainy flavour seeps through, despite a generous use of punchy condiments in the burger.

Bounty Pudding

In addition to the burgers, the menu also lists beverages like iced tea and cold brews, as well as two desserts. Pop the Vegan Chocolate Brownie (Rs 129) into the microwave oven for a few seconds before digging in, and you won't be disappointed. The Bounty Pudding (Rs 129) is a riff on the coconut-filled chocolate bar. Here, however, the desiccated coconut is replaced by coconut milk, giving you a chocolate dessert that feels like velvet on the tongue. We hear that the menu is going to be expanded to include more burgers, and meals. Until then, we're content to binge on another Crispy Eggplant Burger.

Record usage of grocery delivery services amid the COVID-19 pandemic has led to delayed orders, fewer open delivery windows and, on occasion, an inability to even book a delivery time slot.

Mark Dellas PhotographyErika Brason.Companies shut down by the pandemic have had to come up with alternative revenue streams, including Rebel Ride, a local fitness studio in East Amherst, New York. Owner Erika Brason decided to make the studio's classes virtual and rent out her equipment. Renting out 59 bikes for delivery and pickup as well as making 34 workout videos took her and her team just two weeks to put together."This is the time to get noticed in ways you haven't in the past," Brason explained. "You basically have to reinvent your marketing strategies so that when the time comes, you can give people a really good reason to come back."Click here for more BI Prime stories.With the COVID-19 pandemic rattling businesses big and small - from bookstores and restaurants to shops and gyms

Uber Eats sales jumped 50 per cent as people locked down all over the world turned to restaurant deliveries as a treat at home. The company is trying to save more than £800m this year.

Uber Eats is the front runner with 11.5 per cent of Australians using the app, along with other services such as Deliveroo and Hello Fresh following closely behind.

DoorDash, led by CEO Tony Xu, did not specify when exactly it plans to go public, but its debut will test the appetite of investors, who have been unforgiving in recent months toward IPOs.

According to a report from the Financial Times , the two new services called Direct and Connect will revive an offering by Uber from 2015 that allowed users to order products direct to their homes.
