Other than the place Kim mentioned, I'm not sure if there is many more places like this.Sherman Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658949865479421864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524766856706642380.post-86931325171955174912009-09-25T17:18:05.310-07:002009-09-25T17:18:05.310-07:00Sherman,

I can definitely see that some people might try it out for curiosity, the occasional meal or an emergency meal. I think the bulk of their customers are those who do not cook on the fly.
