\"ChineseWhile I know that eating healthy is best for all of us, and it\u2019s darn hard to eat healthy and not cook the food yourself, I still like food that someone else cooks, serves up, and lets me eat at home without all the hubbub of preparation and clean-up. Plus, timing is always right. There\u2019s no having the potatoes done at one time and the meat done at another. If necessary, I can stick the carry out container in to be zapped and have everything hot and ready at once.<\/p>\n

Jack and I live in a pretty small town, with eateries at a premium. There are plenty of fast food establishments, but few actual restaurants to place a to-go order with. And while I love my Quarter Pounders with Cheese and fries from McD\u2019s, sometimes a girl has to have \u201creal\u201d food. So for that I have two favorites to order and bring home for dinner.<\/p>\n

I know it\u2019s a chain, but I like Panda Express. Our town must have thirty Chinese restaurants (none of them deliver, by the way\u2014go figure) but of the several we have tried, we just like Panda Express. Nothing spectacular yet nothing disappointing. However, Jack isn\u2019t that crazy about having Chinese too often. Let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s bad for calories, for blood sugar, for carbs, for a lot of things. So, PE is a treat, not a regular carry-out.<\/p>\n

Another place we have in town is a pretty good Italian \"Italianrestaurant, and their chicken parmesan is fantastic! For that dish alone, I\u2019d have to say that\u2019s our favorite and most used takeaway restaurant. When things were locked down pretty tightly, we could call in our order and they would bring it out to the car. Yummy!<\/p>\n

As Jack says, we\u2019re stuck in a rut and we like it. Once we find something we like, we\u2019ll keep with it forever. That goes for carry-out food too, it seems.<\/p>\n
