CHICAGO and SALT LAKE
CITY, Aug. 21, 2019
/PRNewswire/ -- Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises (LEYE), a
multi-concept restaurant group, and Grubhub (NYSE: GRUB), the
nation's leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery
marketplace, are partnering to offer Whole30 Delivered, Whole30's
first-ever branded restaurant. This delivery-only restaurant
concept from Whole30, the 30-day dietary reset chosen by millions
for stunning, life-changing results, is operated by LEYE and
provides diners across Chicago
access to prepared, Whole30-compliant meals for delivery
exclusively on Grubhub, making it easier to maintain a healthy
lifestyle.
The culinary team at LEYE worked directly with Whole30 to create
a menu for the virtual restaurant that keeps with the lifestyle
brand's commitment to real, whole, unprocessed foods. The menu is
available to order for lunch and dinner – and will rotate
seasonally to showcase the freshest ingredients. Menu items
include: Thai Chicken-Coconut-Curry Soup, Melissa's Buffalo Chicken
Salad, "Spaghetti and Meatballs" made with spaghetti squash and
chicken meatballs, Roasted Chicken Tikka Masala, and more. Visit
whole30delivered.com for the full menu of dishes that are available
starting today for delivery through Grubhub.
"We are thrilled to be working with two great organizations,
Whole30 and Grubhub, in putting together, what we think is a very
different delivery-only concept," said R.J. Melman, president of
LEYE. "We think Whole30 is a great step forward for delivery-only
kitchens."
Delivery-only concepts let culinary teams offer a creative menu
that diners may not be able to find in a brick and mortar location.
This flexibility allows LEYE to turn Whole30's popular lifestyle
into delicious meals delivered exclusively by Grubhub. Grubhub has
long supported virtual restaurants on its platform, helping
restaurants more nimbly capitalize on culinary trends and local
preferences to receive more orders from Grubhub's over 20 million
diners.
"While we love teaching participants how to cook Whole30 meals
at home, it's a game-changer to have accessible, compliant, fast
options for busy days," said Melissa
Urban, co-founder and CEO of Whole30. "As a single mom and
CEO, I'm already imagining how Whole30 Delivered could save the day
with delicious, hearty meals when meetings run late or I'm
traveling a lot."
"We are really excited to help Lettuce Entertain You bring its
compelling new Whole30 concept to life. Lettuce has been at the
forefront of innovative food concepts for decades, and our close
partnership provides great food and unique offerings to diners,"
said Adam DeWitt, president and CFO
of Grubhub. "It's Grubhub's goal to give diners the industry's
widest variety of food choices. Whole30 Delivered adds an exclusive
option to our marketplace for healthy and delicious meals."
Whole30 Delivered from LEYE and Grubhub is open for delivery
Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m.
– 9 p.m. CT and Sunday from 3:30 –
9 p.m. CT. Visit whole30delivered.com
