Chowbus is a food delivery platform focused on high-quality, authentic Asian cuisine. It operates a mobile app that lets customers order from multiple handpicked restaurants in a single checkout, without extra fees. The app supports sampling a variety of dishes in one meal by aggregating orders from several partner venues. The service makes money through delivery fees, service charges, and restaurant commissions, and it also offers pickup discounts of up to 10%. Chowbus differentiates itself by curating every restaurant and dish to ensure quality and authenticity, aiming to provide a more personalized dining experience than general delivery apps. Its goal is to empower local independent restaurants by expanding their reach while delivering convenient, premium Asian meals to customers.
