Delivery apps

What it really means
Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat are the main UK food delivery apps — like Meituan or Ele.me in China, but slower and with delivery fees. Many restaurants are cheaper if you collect the order yourself.
Chinese explanation
Deliveroo、Uber Eats 和 Just Eat 是英国主要的外卖应用——类似美团和饿了么，但送得慢些、配送费更高。很多餐厅自取会便宜不少。
