Colonel's Deli

I have been eating at Colonel's Deli at 4809 Newcom Drive in Knoxville since I was a teenager, and the same couple, originally from Hong Kong, have operated the sandwich shop ever since I can remember. My sister told me that they recently retired, and I regret not being able to tell them goodbye and to thank them for the countless wonderful lunches I have had there over the years. I like the way they did business. You order your sandwich, select your drink from a cooler and pay on your way out. I just called, and Colonel's is open under new management, though they answered the telephone, "Colonel's Cafe." That will take some getting used to.
