    Default Univ City Lunch Delivery - recommendations?

    Hi. I am working at the Cira Center. We have weekly team lunches for 12 brought in on Mondays and are looking at places that will deliver (catering). We know and like Hummous, Erawan, 1st and Fresh catering. Also have had Pure Fare.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks!

    I realize the bulk of their sales are haogies, etc. but I actually like the actual Greek food from Greek Lady.

    Also its a truck, not delivery but Don Memo (also a sit-down in Upper Darby) is recommended as real Mexican.

    I'm sorry to recenntly discover that the Greek Lady is becoming progressively less and less Greek. They still do a Slouvaki platter and the lemon roasted potatoes and tomato sauce green beans but they have dropped the moussaka and stuffed peppers from their menu. Boooooooooooooooo!

    We had a nice lunch delivered by the greek lady this week. Good Gyros, chicken caesar, and delicious spanikopita. and some nice dips too. All delivered properly hot or cold.

    Still if anyone has recs that go above and beyond hoagies or pizza, that would be really great. Ethnic is good.

    What about Manakeesh or the Pakastani fried chicken place?

    And you're just as close to much of CC as you are to UC. Does GIWA deliver? God, I love me some Giwa (Korean).

    I won't lie, I've avoided this place simply because they used the Papyrus font in their logo. Their pizza actually looks really good, at least on their website. What's their delivery zone?

    And 3rd and Brown, Roost is closed, btw.

    Speaking of Pakistani and chicken. Kabobeesh's spicy boneless chicken kabobs with the fresh nan at 42nd and Chestnut are a thing of beauty but does not deliver, to the best of my knowledge.

    I actually like the Middle Eastern side of their menu (Rana's). Really good Shish Taouk.

    bumping this up to see if there is anything new for delivery. thanks people. monday staff lunches are getting a little monotonous (and we always have to make it relatively gluten free and swing on the pescatarian side. no sushi, tho)
