IT'S just after midweek - chances are, you're already weary of the lunch options around your workplace. What about your favourite local fare at a not-so-nearby and rather smoky hawker centre? Or you're keen to discover and try a new eatery. You can now do both with minimal effort.
The recent burgeoning of foodtech solutions in Singapore now lets one do that - with unprecedented ease. Today, more than 15 startups - a mix of meal subscription, food delivery and restaurant booking services - are firing up the foodtech scene here, having each raised millions in venture capital.
