One frustrating fact:
We found a sushi place that sells half-price sushi on Mondays. But, they don’t deliver west of Western Ave. Basically, where they hood starts, they stop. This isn’t turning out to be such an uncommon thing.
One non-frustrating fact:
The Joshua Center got a full order of brand new, industrial strength toilets for almost every bathroom. We’ve been trying to get new ones for a very long time. Somehow, our saint-like maintenance man pulled it off. This is a massive blessing that sent one of our afternoon staff running and screaming down the hallway. I can’t tell you how excited I am to be rid of clogged, overflowing, busted, leaky, tank-top-missing toilets. I cannot even tell you. God is good.

Yes, it’s very frustrating to not have many restaurants in our neighborhoods and then not to have many that will deliver because they are afraid. It means limited healthy food options for our neighbors too since most food options are corner stores.— Do you think St. John was responsible for the toilets?!

Where is this sushi place?

Hi Ashleigh,
I share your sentiments about the frustrating nature that many places are scared to come into East Garfield Park. We have had delivery people say they will come but we need to meet them at their cars. Its frustrating for me, but the reality is that for my neighbors, our neighbors – it limits food choices (as Shawn already pointed out).

The sushi place is an 8 minute drive. I google-mapped it ;).

1) Sushi is always great. Unless it is out of reach.
2) Missing Tank Tops. Giggle. I had to re-read that… ;)
3) I’m glad you had a fact for both sides. Life’s just like that…
xoxo
