Quantity Kitchen
Quantity Kitchen is a comprehensive online food ordering platform designed specifically for bulk catering and event management. It bridges the gap between individual meal prep and large-scale event catering, featuring a unique "Make Your Own Meal" (MYOM) builder and a robust admin panel for managing orders, payments, and master data.
About the Project
Quantity Kitchen is a dual-interface digital solution comprising a customer-facing mobile/web application and a powerful administrative backend. The platform is tailored for "Quantity Kitchens," an online catering service that guarantees perfect taste for parties both big and small.
The customer app offers a seamless browsing experience with pre-set meal packages categorized by cuisine (e.g., Maharashtrian, Punjabi) and a dynamic pricing model where the cost per plate decreases as the guest count increases. Its standout feature is the "Make Your Own Meal" (MYOM) builder, allowing users to act as their own chef by selecting specific items from categories like Farsan, Soup, and Main Course. The user flow includes occasion selection, delivery date scheduling, and a streamlined checkout process.
On the backend, the admin panel acts as the command center. It manages all master data for the app, including Occasions (like Engagement, Baby Shower), Customer databases, and Payment transactions. It provides a clear overview of the system's health, allowing administrators to toggle visibility (Is Active), track creation logs, and monitor purchase returns.
