City Bite
Founded by Chef Grigore following years of culinary leadership in top Reykjavik kitchens (Iceland), City Bite was created to deliver authentic international street food, artisan smash burgers, and corporate catering. RedForge engineered an end-to-end digital ecosystem combining an ultra-fast customer-facing ordering storefront with a proprietary in-house CRM. The platform completely eliminated third-party aggregator commissions, introduced real-time financial and item-level accounting, automated kitchen dispatch through a dedicated Telegram bot, and empowered management with complete operational control over dishes, working hours, and stock availability.
