An Executive Assistant

As an Executive Assistant we know there will always be days when everything is going as planned and you think, “Yay!! I can leave on time to make my appointment.” But just as you are about to make a dash for the door an impromptu dinner meeting has been scheduled and you now need food in the office within the hour!

In the past I’d use services that would need a 2-3 hour advance notice or had a cut off time. But when I was crunched for time I’d just call the restaurant and go pick up food. Unfortunately, that still didn’t mean I’d be back in the office before folks arrive. Oh! Did I mention peak hour traffic on sand hill road and downtown Palo Alto is a nightmare?! 

Then I learned about Fluc (Food Lovers United Corps) which is an amazing food delivery service. Tim, Adam, and Pako are the smart and friendly co-founders always there to help. You can place the order through the website or mobile app and track the driver in real time to check the status of the order. The food is individually packed and delivered in Fluc’s special packaging box. 

They’ve also launched “Google Calendar for Food,” which allows the user to schedule food orders up to 365 days in advance. 

From the website:

How can I use it ?

To use Fluc you can either use the web or mobile phone application (currently iPhone only) and look at the restaurants in your area. Simply set your delivery location, select a restaurant, order your items, pay via credit card and get your food.
