Wouldn’t it be great if you could organise your takeaway lunch from your desk, and have it ready for collection at the exact time you require, so you don’t have to stand in a queue and waste valuable minutes of what is a precious lunch hour. Sounds like heaven. Well guess what? Some considerate restrauteur in Dublin has seen how time poor the workers of the Capital are, and wants to make life easier for them. Who could it be, this lunch hour angel? Deidre McCafferty of Cornucopia, of course. Cornucopia is all about well being, and that starts from within with the food we eat. Now this well established Dublin vegetarian, vegan and wholefood specialist has taken things a step further, by ensuring you get a wholesome takeaway lunch without the stress of standing in line, wasting your valuable work break on trying to buy something to eat. Cornucopia has an online shop, where you can now order and pay for the Takeaway Lunch Special of the Day in advance, and have it bagged up for collection at the time you want. It’s genius.
