In Paris, the neighborhood traiteur - translated into English as "caterer," similar to a deli but not quite the same - along with supermarkets, boulangeries, and butcher shops, is remaining open during the now prolonged confinement. These purveyors of prepared dishes to take away date to the middle ages when homes lacked kitchens.
French traiteurs are said to be frequented primarily by a discerning elderly clientèle, and feature delicacies from entrées to desserts, making them an overlooked - and welcome - meal alternative. A google "search nearby" around an address should reveal where they are hiding - but be sure and call first to confirm that they are still in business! - BPJ
