Not exactly "home cooked" is it :-)
There is a guy in our town who prepares takeout dinners in his house. He used to
run a nice restaurant in town but had to shut it down due to a heart problem. It
was sad to see him go because he had great food at reasonable prices, choice of
freshly made soup or salad (a nice one not just a crummy tossed salad, choice of
entree, dessert and coffee for $20. After he recuperated a bit he started doing
the take out dinners Friday and Saturday evenings. He emails the weekly menu to
his regular customers. Just tell him what you want and what time you want to pick
it up and it will be ready. It's a small menu, two choices of appetizer, 2 main
dishes, dessert of the day. The main dishes sell for $8-12. We have taken
advantage of this several times. He is three minutes away by car. I can order
dinner for 7 pm. leave the house at 6:55 and be home at the dinner table by 7:10
with a nice meal.

I have wondered if what he is doing is legal. Probably not. I have been in his
kitchen. It is very clean. He does it only two days a week and the meals are
ordered ahead of time, so it's not like perishable foods are sitting around in
there. I just wonder how long it will be before one of the neighbours complains
about the traffic on Friday and Saturday nights on that otherwise quiet
residential street.
