Sending soup in Denver today

November 26, 2015 8:24 AM

My best friend is sick at home in Denver today and unable to go her thanksgiving dinner. It's her very favorite holiday, and she'd normally be with us in Oregon, so we feel horrible for her! She joked that she wished we could fed ex her some soup, so we want to make that happen. Best delivery option for great soup, open today? She's on W 9th, by the hospital. Thanks!

Maybe hire a Taskrabbit to get soup from the hot bar at Whole Foods? They're open until 2 or 3 today.

Best answer: A Chinese restaurant should be open today. Go to Eat24 or GrubHub and put in her address. You can buy pay for and tip in the app.

Other restaurants might be open and delivering, but Chinese is your best bet.

Yes, I would definitely say Chinese (or Thai - Tom Kha is my sore throat soup of choice) from GrubHub, and since you'll need to hit a minimum you might as well get her a selection of soups, a main course she can reheat later, and one or two desserts. It's a sad Thanksgiving without dessert.

P.S. If she's up to eating food, I had lunch at a Whole Foods salad bar yesterday and they had all the classic Thanksgiving food (stuffing, mashed potatoes, turkey, cranberry sauce, etc) and it was *delicious.*

Response by poster: Thank you all so much! And thanks for the amazing offer, BR! Ended up grabbing her Pho from grubhub. She was thrilled :).
