Intriguing statistics by Zomato 'How India Ordered Report'

Although samosas have overtaken chicken biryani as the most popular meal on Swiggy, it remains the most popular dish on rival food delivery service Zomato. While Briyani was the most popular previous year as well, it has exploded in popularity this year. It has increased from 22 deliveries per minute last year to 120 per minute this year.

Meanwhile, the tiny momos defeated the mighty samosa (over 30 lakh orders) and vada pav (over 70 lakh orders) (over one crore orders).
Zomato delivered it's annual 'How India Ordered Report' in the most entertaining way it knows how: through social media memes. Despite the fact that the report is a data sheet with numbers peppered throughout, the memes ensure that there are no dull moments.

It's not simply a report on the food that was ordered, but also on the year's most memorable memes. From the perennial ship stranded in the Suez Canal to the 'pawri ho rahi hai' meme, there are plenty of allusions.

Zomato claims to have over one million Pro members who have saved Rs 2.5 billion as a result of their membership.
