the Price of Chinese Food Delivery

We ordered Chinese take-out for three people in our apartment. Each adult ordered an entree and a side, and we also paid to have it delivered to our apartment so we didn't have to get out.

We ordered three adult entrees and drinks from a Chinese Take-Out place. We found the menu in the yellow pages. Each entree was about $7, and we all got a soda. There was a $15 delivery minimum order, but that was easily passed since there were three of us ordering. We placed our call, and they said it would be about 25 minutes for the delivery, which wasn't long to wait. The delivery boy showed up not long after that, and with tip, drinks, tax, and entrees it was about $35. We each got a ton of food, drinks, soy sauce, fortune cookies, and had it delivered, and it was cheaper than if we had ordered a couple of pizzas and drinks. It was worth the tip to the delivery boy just to get to sit at home and have dinner brought to us.

Look for menus in the yellow pages! Sometimes they even have coupons. Make sure you meet the minimum delivery total, which should be easy with more than two people ordering. Always tip the delivery boy, and check your order before he leaves.
