It was difficult enough in the burbs outside of Memphis to find a place that
delivered food. I could get Papa John's pizza but nothing else. Hot & sour
or wonton soup, now *that* would have been a great thing when I was feeling
under the weather! Unfortunately the only Chinese place that had
(contracted) delivery service was shut down due health code violations. The
delivery service stopped delivering even before the health department got
there. Ugh!
