Takeout is a real meal path, not a note attached to dinner
A crew can choose takeout as the plan, name or find the restaurant, and keep the restaurant details attached to that meal. The workflow can include the site or menu, phone number, directions, target date, meal type, and order deadline.
One live order board for the crew
The organizer can start an order form and send it to the crew. Members use the same shared takeout call so each person can enter an order while seeing the current group state, rather than rebuilding the order across separate texts.
What stays connected
- Restaurant name and location details.
- Menu or website access when available.
- A shared order deadline tied to the planned meal.
- Individual crew orders on one live board.
- A crew notification and shareable order link that names the restaurant.
The rest of Meals adapts to the choice
When takeout is active, FireHousePal can stop emphasizing a grocery run and instead keep the useful takeout actions in front. That is part of the broader Meals design: the page changes its job based on whether the crew is planning, shopping, cooking, or ordering out.
