Based on 2018, here are statistics that provide an insight into what the Indian palate preferred at least in the urban areas. These food trends were revealed by Zomato, one such delivery app.
1 Chicken biryani was the most ordered dish: The delectable slow-cooked meat and rice dish-chicken was the most ordered food by Indians.
2 North Indian cuisine most popular: The study revealed that North Indian dishes were the most preferred by customers all over the country (ordering in and eating out).
3 Most number of orders came from Delhi, Ahmedabad: Among Tier-1 cities, the highest number of orders received was from Delhi NCR and Ahmedabad emerged on top among Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities.
4 Users ordered more from home than office: Yet another surprising online ordering trend showed that people ordered food in at home, much more than they ordered in at their offices. The number of orders received for home deliveries was five times that of office food deliveries!
5 Cash is not king: Cashless transactions were the preferred mode of payment by users in the past year. The delivery app’s figures showed that only 28 per cent of users paid by cash for their orders.
