Milkshakes, delivered

Mr. Magoo Pizza in Greektown seems to be doing a brisk delivery business -- in milkshakes.

And Baltimore doctors, nurses and other hospital staffers seem to be the ones mostly slurping them down.

A Magoo driver delivered five shakes to Mercy hospital one night this week.

"I'm in Greektown. It takes, like, 20 minutes for a driver to get to Mercy," said Hassan Mahfouz, Magoo's owner.

The shakes cost $3.99 apiece, so that helps make it worth his while. And there's a four-shake minimum for delivery.

For some reason -- crazy work hours? dedication to calcium intake? -- hospital employees seem to be among his biggest shake customers.

Said Mahfouz: "Mercy, Shock Trauma, Johns Hopkins and Bay View -- all the hospitals -- Union Memorial, all of them like my shakes."
