Food flying to you in Northside

Polly just passed on the following info:

"Residents of Northside can now have their favorite restaurant meals delivered to them at home. A new bicycle restaurant delivery service called Flying Food will deliver food, coffee, pizzas and even CDs from Northside businesses to Northside residents. The owner is Dan Vogel-Essex, a recent University of Cincinnati graduate, who wanted to have a business that would employ bicyclists. Customers pay a $2 delivery fee. Participating restaurants include Hideaway, Northside Tavern, Melt, The Comet, Portofino pizza, Sidewinder coffee shop, plus you can order from Madison’s Grocery and Shake-It Records. Call 513-591-3663 (that spells FOOD). Flying Food operates 4-10 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday."

Love it. Too bad I don't live in Northside... but they are planning to expand at some point. I've lived in cities that have had much more extensive restaurant delivery service - usually by motorbike - and took advantage of it quite a bit. It's a good start.
