Here in China going to the restaurant is becoming a lifestyle choice, with more and food being delivered. Swarms of delivery scooters flood the streets of Shanghai, ignoring all the rules and other vehicles in a fervent rush to deliver more orders. They get paid around $1 per order. Over 3,000,000 orders are being delivered DAILY just in Shanghai. Delivery times can be as short as 15 minutes or as "long" as 1 hour. Rarely longer. Tons of plastic waste every day. Awful food. But omg how convenient is that.
