The Papa John’s restaurants across the US now accept orders by text message (SMS). To use the SMS Ordering services, you need to register at their website, and setup your favorite menus including pizza, side orders and drinks. To order the pizza, SMS the menu name to Papa John’s.

To order a Favorite send text “FAV 1” etc to 4papa (47272). In response a message with details about the order, along with price and delivery/carryout information. There is then a prompt to confirm and complete the order by replying Y1 which is then followed up with a confirmation text, with the estimated delivery time sent afterwards along with the order number.

I guess this is the right time for Indian food chains to start receive SMS Orders and deliver at home. This could work well, with some restrictions on delivery areas, in metros. The same functionality can be extended for restaurant chains, bakers, etc..
