SAVE THE うまかもん

Born out of a collaboration among largely local Fukuoka businesses, this project seeks to further aid local restaurants by providing not only takeout but also delivery support services from a varied range of some 100 different restaurants, as well as teaming up with an online nomikai (drinking party) service provider to further promote local restaurants.

TakeOut’s

TakeOut’s

TakeOut’s is an online takeout listing service created to support local Fukuoka restaurants where both individuals and companies alike can publish their takeout information completely free of charge. While this is still a new service and does not have that many available listings yet, you can search for restaurants which offer takeout by map view, train station, train line, or municipality, so it’s a very convenient service.
