Why is there no good cheap take-out in this town?

Spokane lacks many things but one of the main problems, at least for us, is the utter lack of good cheap take-out. It is sad really. There was a semi-decent pizza place but it never stayed open past 8 o'clock at night and its employees were lazy and not-to-bright, as in they could never remember what was on their menu, no matter how many months they had been there, and reading it themselves seemed to only confuse them further. It is now closed. This is not really a surprise, but it is a disappointment. They may have been frustrating but their pizzas weren't bad and they had a very tasty salad. Aside from the pizza problem, the biggest problem is the utter lack of Chinese take-out. This town has Chinese buffets and a P.F. Changs (with plenty of Chang sauce) but no inexpensive Chinese take-out. This makes me sad. Matt has gotten quite good with the wok, and sometimes he makes things like this for us.







These things are always tasty, but on nights like tonight, when we are both exhausted and just want to collapse, call the Chinese restaurant around the corner, and veg out, these things feel impossible. Very sad.
