RŌDIE is a new takeout spot in Toronto that's devoted to "hand food and road sodas" and it's all about providing people with refreshments to take on the go. The perfectly portioned menu items are designed to be eaten with one hand (and a drink in the other) so that people can enjoy walks or other out-of-home adventures, and experience great food and drinks without having to be tied to a table.
Some of the options that can be ordered from the takeout and delivery concept include burgers, Berkshire Dogs, vegan celeriac and hand pies.
Over the last few years, people have grown accustomed to getting their favorite food and drinks with takeaway services and this changing way that people are ordering and eating their food is reflected in RŌDIE.
