When I first moved to Tucson, most places I tried didn't sell pizza by the slice. They sold small individual pizzas, medium, and large. Not by the slice.
A new place came in, started selling slices and now that is the big thing . The strange thing is many places slice their pizza into six instead of eight
Having grown up with eight-slice pies, I like the six-way slice better. Some of the places make 16 or 18 inch pies. It's off-putting when you see a sign that says slice and a draft beer for $10, but it can be worthwhile. I had a 1/6th slice of a 16 inch meatball pizza and when folded, it was more meatball hero than slice of pizza.
whenever I get Chinese it is to go invariably with tax it is around $13. It is a combo and includes an egg roll fixed right then so that sounds about right. It fills me up. No drink but I have plenty to drink at homeQuote: Dieter$19.60 at the Chinese buffet tonight, before tip.
I let some lo mein noodles go swimming in a bowl of hot & sour soup; not bad. Otherwise, usual fare, the chicken with broccoli (heavy on the broccoli) is generally good.
On a lot of recent days, I get about one and a half "meals" in. A fairly light breakfast, snack on some melon, then something moderate as a late lunch. I blame the medications.

That sounds about right for a to-go box, made-to-order.
Sadly, my preferences run toward a variety of dishes (when available), so I can taste a little of this, a little of that.
Quote: avianrandyTrue but I'm to cheap to pay $20 for a variety. I know what I am in the mood for. And I always get white rice instead of pork fried.

The buffet I tried yesterday didn't have plain white rice out on offer. I didn't feel like asking for a bowl, so I just had some noodles.
The hot & sour soup was excellent, however. It seemed like they used a hint of tomato, which added an unique richness.
The downside, they didn't seem to parboil the broccoli before stir frying. This seemed to leave it a little too raw for my taste.
