order food, having done something first

시키다 here is ordering food, not the textbook 'make someone do something'. The -아서/어서 clause gives the step before it or the reason: 가서 시키다 (go up to the counter and order), 전화번호 눌러서 시키다 (dial and order), 궁금해서 시켜봤어요 (I ordered it out of curiosity). 시켜 먹다, which appears in several of these lines, is the fixed phrase for having food in rather than cooking it.
