Grubhub For Everyone

Chicagoist is looking outside her office window right now and it's snowing like a mofo. All we really want to do tonight is stay indoors and veg out on the couch. We don't even want to cook tonight and we love to cook.
So it's fortunate for us that the fantastic kids at Grubhub have made it a million times easier for us to figure out what we're going to eat tonight and who's going to be bringing it to our front doors.
Now a free site supported by Google ads, the self-proclaimed "young computer geeks" have made ordering in not only a snap but efficient as all get out. With just a quick punch-in of our address, we're immediately directed to a slew of restaurants in our neighborhood and unlike other sites that provide you only with an address and review, Grubhub did what should be obvious to anyone assembling an online database of restaurants and provided MENUS. I mean, a review is nice and all but can Chicagoist see what's on the menu? Thanks.
Even better is that now visitors to the site can add listings for their favorite restaurants to the database and include reviews. Smart move on their parts and it saves them some much-needed time.
