Hallmarks of the Underground: Chinese Food

Every Tuesday, my bible study gets out at about 9:30 PM. At this
point, I usually haven't had supper so I get Chinese from China Panda
in the Museum District. I have been doing this so long that they now
recognize me in there. The owners remarkably friendly. They gave out
Christmas presents this year -- I got a bamboo 2005 calendar with
Chinese art on it.

Some interesting observations about the calendar I got:
1) Their hours indicate they close early on Saturday nights and an
hour later than usual on Sunday mornings. Hmm...I wonder what they do
Sunday Morning.
2) They have a fax number. Who faxes in orders for Chinese? Interesting.
3) They cater? Who gets their parties catered with Chinese food?
Perhaps this is an idea for my next birthday...
