While we already have significant traffic for our reviews/listing product and our food delivery service in the city, we are excited to bring our much-loved dining out subscription program Zomato Gold to Chennai. The program has already witnessed tremendous response in Chennai – over 32,000 people have pre-registered to join it.

Zomato Gold is changing the face of dining out and we are super thrilled with the way the country has accepted the program and we endeavor to continue down the same road to take its benefits to more users and restaurant-partners,” said Gaurav Gupta, Chief Operating Officer – Zomato.
