I was just reminiscing on the episode about communism. I can't seem to remember why Elaine was blacklisted at Hop Singh's. Anyone have any ideas?
Elaine's Blacklisting
Fans discuss why Elaine was blacklisted from Hop Singh's restaurant, with debate over whether it was due to attempting to get delivery outside the service area or disputing an incorrect order.
Yes, I think Elaine got blacklisted because she tried to order food for delivery at an address that was outside the restaurant's delivery area by only a few feet. She tried to connive her way into getting Hop Singh's to deliver her favorite fish dish to a neighboring apt. building just inside the delivery ara. Elaine's trick got found out so she was blacklisted. Dos that sound silly? Well, keep in mind that its Seinfeld!
Actually, those were two different episodes. The supreme flounder came from China Panda in "The Pothole", and the blacklisting from Hop Sing's occurred in "The Race".

dumb children with no parental supervision, and access to a hammer.The blacklisting/communism episode was definately one of my favorites, the way they showed Castro and Steinbrenner in there offices, killer stuff. Donny

She ordered a meal and they screwed up the order. Elaine told them that it wasn't what she ordered, and that she wasn't paying for it. So, even though she did nothing wrong, the guy put her "on a list"
Ah, now I remember. You're right on. Thanks a lot James.
One of my favorites! "Benes!! No food for Benes!!"
