The pandemic disrupted many food-service places. We had a new place
whose opening day was on the first day of the quarantine. Not the best
timing. Bv)= But they set up tents w/spce heaters and soldiered on. My
Sunday breakfast bunch were ther on our first Sunday and quite liked
how they handled the problem. They've certaily lasted longer than the
O'Charley's franchise which they replaced.
We have a local cafe which does free dinner on Thanksgiving and Xmas.
Owned by a Palestinian, Sgt. Pepper's Cafe is well-known in the area.
Owner, Ziyad Samara, told the local paper "This country has been very
good to me. This is my way of giving back."
I ate there one Thanksgiving when all the family was "elsewhere" for
the day. When I attempted to pay pay Ziyad got huffy with me saying
"No! No! Free for all!"
So, I left a tip on the table of about what the meal would have cost
from the menu. Hey, she's working her holiday. That deserves special
consideration.

UDD NOTES: Barry calls this 'stroganoff'. I wouldn't.
I was out of summer savory - so substituted a mix of
thyme and sage - quite successfully. I used store
sourced wide egg noodles rather than making my own.
