The company is testing a new project called Intercity Legends, through which it will deliver iconic foods across Indian cities in 24 hours. Food items will be cooked, frozen, and then shipped by air or road. You will receive them the next day. For now, the project is only available in a few cities.

How will this work?

According to a blog published by Zomato, the company will use its vast network of restaurant partners and delivery partners to understand what legendary dishes customers across India love.

The feature lists restaurants in different cities where customers can place their orders like any other regular Zomato order.

“Food is freshly prepared by the restaurant and packed in reusable and tamper-proof containers to keep it safe during air transit. State-of-the-art mobile refrigeration technology preserves the food without the need to freeze it or add any kind of preservatives,” said Zomato.

The food can be microwaved, air-fried, or pan-fried after you receive it, just like any other dish you get out of the refrigerator.
