Update 8/17/2015, 1:38 p.m.
This week's UberEats line-up is absolutely off the chain. And we mean that in a big, big way.
From August 17th through August 21st, Uber will be serving eats from iconic New York City establishments like Katz's Deli, Sal, Kris and Charlie's, Pies 'n' Thighs, Red Hook Lobster Pound, Ramen Burger and more.
Check out the full schedule here.
Seriously, who would have ever thought the day would come when you can chow down on Katz's classic pastrami sandwich and potato knish-- delivered to your curbside in 10 minutes or less?!

Because who wants to actually get up and get their lunch when you can have food brought to them, right? Everyone know's there's sadly a limit to Seamless's magic and for that, UberEats is picking up the slack.
Free delivery on this week's stacked line-up started today at 11 a.m. So the only question that remains is, what are you waiting for?

Car service app Uber and Momofuku mogul David Chang have separately launched two food delivery services today in New York City: UberEATS, which is built right into the Uber app, and Maple, a completely new app.
Both services will deliver restaurant-quality food for reasonable prices; UberEATS dishes range between $9 and $13 (lunch, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.), and Maple will cost $12 for lunch and $15 for dinner.

Uber also promises your food within 10 minutes flat-- much faster than the wait times you'll experience on Seamless-- and Maple guarantees your meal within a reasonable 30 minutes.
So the big question is: what's on the menu for launch day?
Maple (which currently only serves customers located below Chambers Street) offers Spicy Shrimp Stew, Roasted Beet and Avocado Salad and Flank Steak Tacos today for lunch.
Other items will include green chile enchilada with radish and lime salad, pepper-crusted heritage pork tenderloin, and spiced chicken. Lunch options come with one side, and dinner comes with two.
UberEATS will serve dishes from NYC Cut: you can order the NYC Cut Sandwich (a steak sandwich) or Spring in a Bowl (a salad with beets, greens and radishes).
