Online food ordering extension

[jolu]

Hello all,

I'm searching for more information on how to accomplish the following task. 

I would like to build an online food ordering website and I thought that using Magento could be a good idea. 

I have already started building the checkout system using extensions and given scripts. The extension I can't seem to find is a Catalog extension which makes the default catalog (grid view with images) to something that looks like a vertical list where users can change the amount of each product. 

If this can be done by using html/css/js, then this would be awesome. But as far as I know this can't be achieved by using those languages alone. 

I have attached an example of how i would like it to be. 

I really hope someone can guide me in the right direction. Thanks already!

Alex, hy how are you doing, Brother I have a use case can you help me in that?
I have a site FRMenu (https://frmenu.org/) its a French site related to food menus of restaurants In France. Is there anyway that the extension or some other extension can be used to auto fetch or auto update food menus.
if yes, then can this module be applied on other categories that are not food for instant mobile prices.

I applied it for Restaurant Chancellerie, as per my experience.

kindly answer both questions Thank you

Regards
Lucas

It sounds like you're working on a great project! Customizing your Magento catalog to display products in a vertical list format is definitely doable. You can use a combination of custom HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, but for more advanced features like adjusting quantities directly from the catalog, you may need to integrate a specialized extension.

For inspiration, you could check out Cheddar’s Menu , which is a well-organized and user-friendly layout. While they aren't using Magento, their menu format could give you some ideas on how to structure the grid and allow users to interact with each item easily. You could apply a similar design to your own site.
