What takeout can you get closest/fastest from your home? What's the best and closest?

For us, it's a Vietnamese Pho place. And it's probably one of the best options in the neighborhood. It's literally under our building, even though we have to walk around the block to get there. Tasty, cheap and fast - the only problem is when it's closed on Tuesdays.

Ha! I remember some guy at a DC-area party telling me that Columbia is the premier suburb between DC and Baltimore. And that's when I knew that I could never think about living there. But I'm glad to hear that it's at least walkable and has decent food!

It has marvelous food (as might be evidenced by 3/4 of all of my posts being restaurant reviews - I make a point of staying in the county). Also, it has walking/biking paths, so one can theoretically walk or bike from most anywhere to most anywhere within the town. I generally rarely walk with intent to get places (except the library, 20 minute walk, 6 minute drive), but I absolutely insist on having nice places to stroll.

It's definitely not everyone's cuppa, but I love it here. I enjoy cities, but at this point I don't think I could trade all the green I have here for convenience of being more centrally located. (With the caveat, of course, that the green is close to great food, decent shopping, passable entertainment, acceptable work commutes, and reasonable access to dance venues.)

See, I don't really like the green. It brings allergies, bugs, and implies weather warm enough to produce it. Not that SF isn't green, but its greenery doesn't seem to be as bad for me. And I think I need to feel like I have greater population density around me.
