I eat Sherpa’s because _________, in the words of a true lover: “just finish it”. We love you and love means finishing
each others’ sentences. The other day, my better half said “can I have that…” I put my finger to her mouth and said”…rope with which to hang myself.” It was sweet. Send your clever second halves to competition@sherpa.com.cn or as a comment to this blog post for your chance to win. First place gets 1,000rmb in Sherpa’s money, second gets five hundo, third gets two fitty and honourable mention gets a cool hundy. Have fun with it!

  1. I eat Sherpa’s because free delivery makes it cheaper and requires far less effort than going to the restaurant.

  2. I eat Sherpa’s because eating alone at a restaurant is kind of depressing when the waiters ask you every five minutes when your friend/s will be arriving.

  4. Let’s be honest, I eat Sherpa’s because I’m lazy. And I’m cheap; I only order during happy hour.

  8. I eat Sherpa’s because I’m not one of those lazy people expecting servants to come running over if I yell “fuwuyuan” and demanding everything to be brought to me at my fancy table. Psshh, I’ll bring my own plate to my table!

  9. I eat Sherpa’s because I can eat delicious food on my couch in sweatpants without judgement.

  10. I eat Sherpa’s because I moved from Puxi to Pudong for work and can no longer walk to all my favourite places. And Sherpa’s is cheaper and easier than getting a taxi to the local laowai hotspots.

  11. I eat Sherpa’s because it makes ordering food less effort than painting an Easter egg.

  12. I eat Sherpa’s because you deliver a whole world of food choices right to my door…what could be better? And, for households where members like different foods, like ours, happy hour is a lifesaver and we can each get anything we want. It’s a great way to try new restaurants/foods. Like their namesakes, Sherpa’s does all the “heavy lifting” to make life a little easier.

  13. I eat Sherpa’s because otherwise I would be spending my time buying and eating instant noodles at Family Mart, they saved my life. (I don’t know how to cook).

  14. I eat Sherpa’s because I can order it from my bed, where I am sitting because I am too lazy to cook the groceries that I also ordered from my bed.

  17. I eat Sherpa’s because i’m an over-paid foreign English teacher who cant be bothered to leave my apartment and experience the authentic food of the country I am living in.

  18. I eat Shelars because i don’t always want to wear a bra or brush my hair to eat good food

  20. I eat Sherpas because I am always reminded of the literal meaning of a ‘Sherpa’ and subsequently the fact that I need to climb Mount Everest one day as one of my life goals. Which will be aided by the healthy food that you conveniently deliver to my door.

  21. I eat Sherpas because running up and down the Himalayas gives them a lot of meat on their bones.

  22. I eat Sherpa’s because my favorite thing to do on the weekend is to eat food from around the world and have a beer while watching TV in just my pair of designer CK briefs that I got for 7.50 RMB at the fake market. Until someone comes up with that theme restaurant, heaven is a right here on my couch thanks to Sherpa!

  23. I eat Sherpa’s because I can eat good food in the comfort of my own home and most importantly in my underwear!

  24. I eat Sherpa because no restaurants would accept naked people eating their food.
    …This is a line I must put on my resume.

  25. I eat Sherpa’s because, well, let’s face it, I can eat anything I want! Isn’t that wonderful?
    Indian, Chinese, French, Vegan, American, Italian, Turkish…wow. You travel around the world without lifting a finger…except for when your food arrives! 😉

  26. “I eat Sherpa’s because __________”

  28. I eat Sherpas because I can set a delivery time the night before and wake up hungover to a driver in an orange jacket giving me breakfast.

  29. I eat Sherpa’s because it is PURE Happiness :

    -Pleasure to type http://www.sherpa.com.cn to stop my hanger
    -Excitement to choose the dish i want, all the dishes seems amazing so I take hours to decide
    -Jubilation when I see the order page, that I can’t close the page in case my order will disappear
    -Joviality to imagine that you are eating you dish right now and you can’t stop watching the time every 5 min.
    -Euphoria when you hear your door alarm ringing and you run to press the button to open the door (except when you realize it is your Ayi, landloard, electricity bills or your roomate’s girlfriend…)
    -Enchantment to see the delivery guy who suddendly become your best friend (so you give him so extra kuai for coming all the way under the rain)
    -………….. aa… sit down… lets prepare the movie…. open the boxes ! I am just happy you are here !

  30. I eat Sherpa’s because when you’re hungry at the top of Mt. Everest, there isn’t much else around.

  32. I eat Sherpas because … DAMN it feels good and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside

  34. I eat sherpa’s because if I went outside, everyone I ENCOUNTER would EXPLODE from my AWESOMENESS!

  35. I eat SHERPA’s because if I went outside, everyone would EXPLODE from my AWSOMENESS

  36. I eat SHERPA’s because if I went outside, everyone would EXPLODE from my AWSOMENESS

    HOW COME I KEEP GETTING ERRORS! WHAT ABOUT MY PIC?

    R-ight
    P-lus

    ‘S- hanghai won’t be the same without you’ – city dwellers + vistors

  42. I eat sherpa’s because it is awesome. As an Expat when i first came to shanghai i needed time to add adapt to the culture and the people here. Maybe Sherpa’s wasn’t the solution to my problems, but it sure made it a lot easier for me.

  47. I eat Sherpas because between work and graduate school, sometimes cooking just doesn’t happen at the end of the day.

  50. I eat Sherpa’s because it offers great service, wonderful food and an effective way for me to save time!

  51. I eat Sherpas because I have no choice. Four years ago I came across a secret “Walter white”esque meth lab being fronted by one David Howard (although back then we just called him pickle dick – super long story). Anyways, after stumbling upon the lab the Sherpas minions advanced upon and surrounded me and warned me that if I didn’t order Sherpas 18 times a month that they would kidnap my family and force them into Sherpa slavery (sticking. Those Sherpas labels to containers and what not). Anyways, long story short buying Sherpas feeds the drug economy…but it’s delicious and only a few ppl get hurt

  52. I eat Sherpa’s because….oh so many reasons! It’s quick for your fix. It helps your life tick. It’s use of the English vernacular is extremely sublime! When the orange clad man knocks on the door, in my dressing gown I smile and am hungry no more!

  53. I eat Sherpa’s because I can’t decide where to go for food! I go to Sherpa’s website and see all the choices and then I’m eating in the comfort of my pyjamas in no time.

  54. Technically I don’t eat Sherpas as they so not have a storefront, nor do they prepare food. I do however utilize their services for a number of reasons…I’m lazy, I don’t wanna hassle with trying to speak the awful Chinese that comes from my mouth, I’m cheap and only order from Happy Hour locations, and I’m lazy. Plus, the voices in my head tell me to. **OK FINE, DO YOU WANT THIN OR THICK CRUST? OF COURSE THE BEERS WILL BE COLD, I SAID BING DE!!!**
    Sorry about that, they can be a bit pushy.

  59. I eat Sherpa’s because my wife is vegan and I need MEAT!!!! Perfect for the both of us!

  64. I eat sherpas because their braised cheek meat goes ever so well with a fine Chianti. (Oh, I see. Punctuation and capitalization errors on me. My bad.)

    errm…

    ha..

    I mean…

    I eat Sherpa’s because I can call from the office and then get on my scooter and race the delivery man to my door! Double tip if I not there first!

  68. I eat Sherpas because my dog likes to chase men dressed in orange uniforms. While I eat, he gets his exercise.

  69. Why do I eat Sherpas?

    I have always loved Sherpa’s, it makes ordering food quick, easy and with cheap delivery fee! Day or night, they will be at your door with your delivery in their hands, still hot and delicious. Sherpas sponsor some great restaurants and some not so great (Dos Locos) JK 😉 ! Anyway I think this delivery service is just great in so many ways. If my friends and I ever want to order something; Sherpas is where we go! If one is drunk or high and looking for some good grub; Sherpas is the place to go! It is really quick which is something that I really take into account. I have gotten a late order once, where I wasn’t even asked to pay the full price 🙂 Amazing Place to go if you need to eat quick and good!

    Super
    Humbling
    Easy
    Rapid
    Persistent
    Amazing

    That is why I eat Sherpas!

  71. Thank You Sherpa….
    I am in Shanghai far from Home (i.e. India) and Just with Sherpa I am able to Order from my Office and Get the Indian and other Country food in just few Clicks.
    Also, the Customer Service makes sure that the Delivery reaches us.

    So, great going Sherpa Love You

  74. I eat Sherpa’s because is fair. I used to order on those ones which offer the same prices as in the restaurant. So, I know always what I am paying for and never feel cheated like with another delivery service when you don’t know if food is overpriced because of the restaurant or the delivery service.
    With Sherpa’s, you always clear.

    So, for me, after trying several ones (Chinese and Non Chinese) I do not need to check with others anymore and always go with Sherpa’s. Added Value Service ( Promotions, Happy Hour, Newsletter…) plus Transparent & Desglosed rates, makes it my choice.

  75. I eat Sherpa because I saw this competition and thought I might play my chances in winning the 1000 RMB. Thanks for choosing me Sherpa. 😉

  76. I eat Sherpas because I never managed yet to get one delivery without the extra 30 or 45min due to any good local reasons 🙂 did anyone succeed?

  77. I eat Sherpas because they stay frozen on Everest and are available to be eaten on the way up, and back down, a bit salty though.

  78. For reasons so sinister they cannot be divulged on these pages….although every man has his price, so maybe I can be persuaded to reveal my secrets. A voucher may do the trick.

    I eat Sherpa’s, to be Black on Orange.

  84. I eat sherppas because when epically conquering Mt. Everest I develop quite the hunger and need for sustenance and prolonged stamina, thus sherppas do nicely as they are high in caloric intake.

  88. I eat Sherpa’s because if I see an orange bike go by and it isn’t going to my house, I just get hungrier.

  138. I eat Sherpa’s because I like to fantasize about my food more than the men in my life. Then I can order online and when I get home, it’s waiting for me and I can go straight to bed.
