Attention lazy diners, hungry shut-ins, and all others who yearn to eat out while staying in: Our Stranger Food Fight quarterly is devoted exclusively to food that professionals will bring to your house for money. In the following pages, you'll find investigations of delivery food across Seattle, from Paul Constant on Capitol Hill to Angela Garbes in Ballard to Thadius Van Landingham in the land where delivery drivers fear to tread, better known as the Central District. If you've got recommendations for delivery places we missed (other than Domino's, Papa John's, or one of those weird "menus-to-go" middleman services), let us know at chow@thestranger.com.
