I am not sure what you mean by "Uber for Food". Does it mean that you will allow local neighborhood folks to make and deliver food locally? Depending on where you are launching, you are already looking at bunch of regulatory issue. Add to that operations, sales plus infinite other minutiae.
Three months is really not that long and your focus should be on getting to market, getting some traction and validating your business model. Groupon started as a wordpress site... |

I think you misunderstood. Well, first of all, it's more like an online restaurant. Second, it's not going to get launched until next year (there's about a year left). Third, we're starting with a rather small area. The business model is in the works (and it's noting really complicated, to be honest), but I'm only really responsible for the technology part.
The Summer holidays are coming up, so that should give me time to develop the system.
The projects seems to be very exciting and interesting, but a part of me says that maybe going with something simple and pre-baked is the best solution business wise. Right now, I'm looking into some Django e-commerce plugins [0]. I was already thinking into doing Django server-side, and going with Angular on the client. Designing a RESTful API with Django and consuming it with Angular (this seems like a good fit). Then, I could use something like Ionic [1] to make mobile apps, straight from the developed website. This would be "two birds with one stone", since I'm also intending to develop mobile apps. Now this possibly justifies investing extra time and effort (business wise) into developing a solution from scratch.
