Going to gym and having a fat mrs, it's a rare occurence that I get to feast on a good old fashioned takeaway. A Chinese is very much on the cards tomorrow as I've been led to belive Dominoes is now shit.
What's your takeaway of choice?

Wouldn't a fat missus love Dominoes?
Depends on the mood.
I find the local pizza place is usually better than the likes of Dominoes, and about 1/3 of the price.
There's an Indian place across the road which is incredible and one of the best I've ever had, but I usually prefer to eat in than to eat it at home.
Chinese isn't really my cup of tea, but I have one occasionally because it's my wife's favourite.
There's a great chippy nearby too, but it just doesn't compare to the place in Walsall that has orange chips (which are fucking incredible, by the way).
Chinese.
I recently discovered twice cooked pork at a Thai/Chinese place near here and it's ridiculously good.
It actually makes me want to go to Chengdu and sample the real thing.
The Indian restaurant nearby. He's been trying to break me by making my food spicier and spicier every time, but I am not backing off.
Chinese as default. I could literally eat 15-20 different things from the standard menus.
After that I would go with kebab/munchiebox or an Indian pizza.
I bloody hate shit Chinese.
Chinese. Even shit Chinese. I fucking love it.
I also love Indian (although there's hardly any around here), pizza (not fucking Domino's though, it's shit and overpriced) and chippy. No wonder I'm fat.
Fish 'n' chips by an absolute fucking mile. I get bland shit from the Chinese because fuck them, and our local pizza places are shit (**Asda Crew**).
Speaking of moody foreign muck, my friend insisted on taking me to a curry house the other day and it was crap. There wasn't even any novelty value, since I had never set foot in an Indian before (in contrast to them being a Midlands retard who loves it); it was just rubbish.
I bet everything you eat is bland.
Indian would be the choice closely followed by normal chipper food. Dish of choice would either be a lamb pathia from the former and battered sausages from the latter.
The only stuff I eat from the Chinese are a spice bag or chicken balls, and pizza is always a meh.
I've just had some chicken and a couple of 'Frosty Fancies', so clearly not.Originally Posted by Boydy
I'm with Giggster, curry all the way. I've twice in the last 5 days had hopes of a curry dashed. Fuckers.
Out for an Italian tonight in the land of Royal Berkshire.
I had a lamb dopiaza and vegetable pakoras last night
Lewis is correct. The chippy prevails over all. Fish and chips or kebab coated in various sauces
Chinese most often, Indian would be my next choice. There's greater variety with a Chinese.
The Chippy is an occasional thing. Pizza is generally rubbish/overpriced.
I forgot kebabs. Used to get some epic ones in NI, but here they all seem to be pitiful ones in a pitta bread.
Doner, sauce, and fuck all else in a massive naan
King doner with cheese
What was the chicken flavoured with/in?
And what are frosty fancies?
If I eat junky food I usually just eat it at the place, for lunch and the such. But that's only "privately" as it were, since I actually go and buy takeaway for lunch every single day when at work, that I usually bring back up to the office. Although given that I do that every day, I tend to try to go for noncey food like sallads, so that I don't become a complete lump or lard.
I'd probably pick curry (South Indian garlic chilli chicken or Madras) if forced to pick a favourite but I like the other takeaways as well. For pizza I now order local though. Can't say I've found one where the pizzas are especially great but like fuck am I paying Dominos/ Pizza Hut prices when it's just me.
What I have a lot at the moment is the bag of salt/chilli chips and salt/chilli chicken from one of the locals. Massive portion, delicious and under £6.
There's a Korean place near my school that has freaking amazing Bibimbap.
Cheap Indian is scarce in Sweden, sadly. Instead we have one shitty combined kebab/pizza place per capita.
What exactly does salt/chili mean here? Is it literally just salt & chili or is it a chili sauce with salt in it?
It just sounds a little retarded saying "salt" as kind of a flavour to chips. What would be like saying "stock with water in it" or "lasagna with pasta in it", kind of.
Yo where do you live bro? I want some of that Bibimbap action.
As in - where is the place?
(don't really give a fuck where you live)
It's normally without a sauce and is fairly heavy on the salt.
Chinese. The Great Wall does spring rolls that are the size of a car.
Koreana at Luntmakargatan. It gets overlooked often since it's on the same street as Arirang, but I find Koreana to be way less.. pretentious, I guess? It's just a really big bowl of Korean goodness.
Bibimbap is the works. Not a takeaway though (here anyway).
There's an absolute top rank kebab shop at the end of my road which not only serves the finest kebabs you can get anywhere, but also is run by a trio of legendary Turkish 'boys' (there's the one with loads of scars, the old one, and the one with the bizness moustache) who are all round heroes and famously once mobilised the entire town against the wanker Tory council when they tried to take their licence away. Needless to say it gets used a shitload by me.
Indian is the best food, but best eaten at the restaurant. Chinese is shit, crispy duck aside. Pizza I wouldn't even countenance having as a takeaway.
There it is.
Sounds like Jims office.
I haven't thought about this in great detail, but there's a decent chance it's the best single common dish in the world.
For the uninitiated, what happens is you take the bowl above, which is hot and/or self-heating, throw some red chili sauce on top and then mix everything around so the egg sort of cooks into it. It's of simply unbelievable quality.
I love eggs but couldn't be having them in something like that.
Generally we'll go for Chinese, but I actually probably slightly prefer Indian. For pizza I'd rather just walk to Tesco's across the road than spend £900 on Domino's.
I tried Deliveroo the other day which was pretty cool - basically they bring restaurant food to you. In London this is pretty cool as there's loads of great restaurants (although I doubt it'd work everywhere).
Surely that's incredibly expensive?
On the other hand, I dislike eggs but think it would work (especially a raw one) really well.
Why are British people so squeamish about eating a bit of raw egg? You stick like raw egg yolk in a mayonnaise and that's no problem. Stick it on top of a carbonara, that's awesome as well.
In fact, as loose eggyolk is glorious on top of just about anything.
I don't mind raw egg at all, I just don't want eggs near anything that's not toast or a fry.
I could eat curry every night and never get sick of it. Ideally sauces that are flavoursome, thick and in that 'hot but not vindaloo' vicinity. Usually lamb. Paneer curry is quality as well, but that's something for when I get invited to dinner parties by yoghurt-knitting loony lefties rather than a takeaway with the ladz and beerz and bantz.
I accidentally went to that super wacky Indian place in Edinburgh that serves the 'world's hottest curry' and other hilarious kooky stuff. My mate ordered a fucking veggie haggis chocolate curry, which was almost a friendship ending transgression. I tried a bit and it was possibly the most disgusting thing I've ever eaten. He wasn't even doing it to be lolrandom, I think he genuinely thought it would be good.
I like most takeaway stuff though, what I have depends on my mood. Even horrible grey donner meat is perfect when you've had enough to drink.
Hey Brits, wanna trade a few of our Iraqi immigrants for your Indians and Pakistanis? Getting really jealous of your curry-situation.
It's the price you'd pay in the restaurant + £2.50 delivery fee. It was pretty good and worth it for the novelty of having something different.
When I say 'restaurant' I mean a burger place or whatever. I'm not getting Michelin * stuff as takeaway
Think it is mainly Bangladeshies you'll be wanting actually. And no, fuck you.
Well a lot of people in Britain seem really paranoid about it. Anyway, I like egg on just about anything.
Besides, Bibimbap is kind of like the Korean version of a stir-fry anyway.
Nepalese do the best curries.
Walked past that place every day after work for about 6 months. Never wanted to go in because it just looked so fucking grim and desolate. Street view captures it pretty well:
Raw egg on steak tartare with some onions and gherkins
I love it all. Fish and Chips is probably my favourite although a Chinese runs it pretty close. Can't wait until I've shifted a bit more weight so I can go back to having the odd takeaway.
Thats some new level of hipstery. Where does one find a fucking Nepalese place? I bet they hardly even have them in Nepal.
Oh yeah, babyRaw egg on steak tartare with some onions and gherkins
We have it up here as well. We tend to order it for lunch or after work drinks in the office.
Works really well.
There are thousands of Nepalese people in Britain so restaurants are pretty common.
Check you out trying to be all edgy all of a sudden when there's an active WDYTOEThats some new level of hipstery. Where does one find a fucking Nepalese place? I bet they hardly even have them in Nepal.
Oh yeah, baby
