“Dear PoPville,
I was wondering if you can throw out a question about what restaurants in Takoma Park / Silver Spring / very NE DC have their own delivery? I read a horrible thread about doordash/uber eat’s practices and want to quit delivery apps. Realistically I don’t think I’d go pick up food, as when I use the apps it’s for convenience. So, would love any recommendations of restaurants that manage it themselves. I’ll throw one that I recently found out that does it themselves, la casita pupusería!”
Recommendation from a reader: “Cocineros (near Home Depot on East West Highway) and its sibling restaurant San Alejo (New Hampshire Ave) both offer their own delivery. “
