What kind?

Me? I wish there were more Asian/Thai food restaurants, and more ethnic restaurants, in general.

And a really good used bookstore...

I've tried quite a few Chinese restaurants in Wilmington, and one Thai in Southport. They all suck. I guess all of the Asians who are good cooks open their restaurants up north.

I'd like to see a new grocery store chain, one that's somewhere in between Harris Teeter's high quality and even higher prices and Food Lion's low quality/high prices. Eh well, there's always WallyWorld for low quality/low prices.

Not all Chinese up north are good cooks! I had a meal last week that proves my statement.

I think the one thing that the East needs is a really good Zoo for the kids.

Would that be a zoo for the kids to visit, or a zoo to put the kids into??

(sorry couldn't resist...)
