NURA for food & delivery
A food order is made to order, often with changes ("no onions"), a delivery area and a customer waiting. NURA answers menu and delivery-fee questions and drafts replies for staff. Cooked-to-order orders through Ask NURA are not available yet, so your team records those orders.
The workflow, step by step
Every step carries its current status.
Order message
"2 cheeseburgers, one without onions, delivered to Kilimani."
AvailableMenu price answer
Ask NURA answers menu price questions from your catalogue, asking which item when several match. Delivery-fee questions to Ask NURA still get "not found"; the draft and order use your delivery-area lines.
AvailableDraft reply for approval
Staff check each draft for delivery-time, capacity or payment promises before approving.
AvailableCooked-to-order order
Coming: a fix for made-to-order items is in review. Until then, staff record the order on the Orders page.
Staff-handledModifiers
Add-ons such as extra cheese can be a priced line. Removals such as "no onions" are not recorded; the kitchen reads the conversation.
Staff-handledDelivery
Delivery fees are priced lines per area. No delivery zones, prep-time or capacity model.
