Direct ordering for a cloud kitchen

A first-party ordering platform that wins repeat customers back from delivery apps: website, Android apps, kitchen and admin dashboards.

  • Website + 3 Android apps
  • Ops dashboards
  • Pricing model
Benaam Kitchen website: headline 'Folded, rolled and tossed by hand' next to a plate of momos

The brief

A cloud kitchen that sells only through delivery apps pays their commission on every order and never owns the customer relationship. The goal: a direct ordering system good enough that regulars order there instead.

What we built

  • A customer website and installable web app: menu, cart, checkout and live order tracking
  • Native Android apps for customers, the kitchen outlet and riders
  • Admin and kitchen dashboards for orders, menu, delivery and customers
  • A pricing model, a Monte Carlo simulation, that sets every price and fee

The hard parts

  • Never changing a live price by accident: catalogue changes go through a five-stage, owner-approved process
  • Every number carries an evidence label, so a modelled figure is never shown as a measured one
  • 138 written specs, so the build follows decisions instead of guesses
Built with
Laravel 12 (PHP), Jetpack Compose (Kotlin), Python
