I've seen you, you're about 4 foot 6, you can't possibly triple-carb on a curry and live to tell the tale.
Beef vindaloo almost ready
I only had chicken left but mahow convinced me I needed some vindaloo in my day.
Hopefully done it right. I was messing around and figured it looked pretty. Ideally the chantilly could have been sweeter and more fruit next time but it's not a bad effort given itnwas entirely my own idea.
Thoughts? Still at the cheffing and I'm still doing alright I think.

I put this in the slow cooker this morning but I’ve only just realised I wasn’t supposed to add the chocolate or beans (I used black beans) until later on, so god knows how it’s gonna turn out.
I'm a twit
The beans will be mush.
Chocolate will be fine adding so early, will probably help develop a deeper flavour than adding it with 10 minutes to go.
Chocolate might 'burn'/go bitter which is why it's added at the end.
I went to the Five Guys, and it occurs to me that the economics of it favour sharing. You're probably paying overs for the burger, but the chips are incredible value and could easily be shared, so top that up with a few goes on the drinks machine (you could probably share one of those if you both already had AIDS) and you're alright. Fuck me it was busy though. I seemed to get there before the queues started building, but by the time I was finished it was like the school disco bus had broken down.
I thought five guys was disgusting shit but I was really hungover. Almost Famous in Manchester I'm more happy to categorise as absolute wank because I was entirely without hangover when I ate there and it was proper rubbish.
I think Solito is the place you want to go when you're in Manchester for a burger
Five Guys is alright but GBK is still better. ShakeShack wasn't up to much when I tried it a few years ago.
I need to try that Bunsen place that @Giggles was on about. There's one in Belfast now and a guy I know used to rave about the one in Dublin.
GBK is probably the overly rated expensive burger I've ever had.
Based on the bill amount I thought the bill was for both of us, but turns out it was already split.
Has Five Guys always been comparatively pricey? I've never been to one in the UK, but I'm sure I saw them in the States years ago and they were much more akin to other fast food outlets on price.
GBK is vastly superior to any other burger, it's worth the money. It's more the drinks etc that are pricey there.
They are also more expensive than McDonalds over here.

GBK is gash. It tastes so processed. Every component. Of the classier high street burger chains, Byron, Honest and Five Guys are the tops.
Tis Saturday and I ain't heading out. Indian or Chinese?
Looking at the options the choices are lamb vindaloo, spice chips, and veg pakora or a spicy box.
Indian every single time.
Kebab on the way Fam. Cheesy chips n’all.
It's Indian for me and the way my stomach is currently behaving, I may well go through the menu.
That vindaloo was a creeper. Hotter ten minutes later than when I was eating it. Beef too, which was a nice change.

Curry looks excellent but those chips should see the place closed down.
The chips are nearly the best bit because they're dosed in kasmiri powder. Plus, they're not those chip shop type chips which would be really unexpected from an Indian or Chinese.
The consistency of that looks like a family pet is ill.
I genuinely, fully shit myself on the way to work on Monday and it looked pretty much exactly like that.
But then that's kind of just curry isn't it. Bet that tasted banging.
It was excellent. I never used tamarind in a vindaloo before but I will do next time.
Why do so many TTHers shit themselves?
You lot are FREAKS.
I was off ill week before the one just gone with the flu and I was still feeling pretty grim Monday but thought I'd give it a go. IDK whether what occurred that morning was a symptom of the flu or whether it was a particularly spectacular IBS flare-up (surprise surprise I get IBS) but anyway. So it happened:
I was driving in and had to take a different route as there's roadworks going on. Usually I'd pass two potential toilet stops and this issue would have been avoided but alas.
Started getting some pretty worrying stomach cramps on some windy country road. There was nowhere I could reasonably stop without shitting in full view of houses and passing cars so I puckered my sphincter and soldiered on. As I was pulling onto the main road things reached desperation point and I was looking around for anywhere remotely feasible to empty my uproarious bowels. Spotted a shitty little truck stop cafe thing and started pulling over, at which point the first breach was felt but I readjusted and stopped the flow. Pulled up and realised the cafe was shut (possibly abandoned) but there was a grotty shed thing behind and I hoped against hope there might be a toilet inside.
Opened the door, stood up and just emptied myself into my boxers. The consistency was - as previously alluded to - that of Giggle's curry. Waddled into this shed, took my trousers and boxers off to be greeted by a truly unholy site. There was no toilet either btw. Wiped everything up with my socks and hoodie. Put my trousers (sans boxers) back on and went and got a carrier bag from the car. I was due to be staying away last week so I had clothes in the car ready for the trip, so I also grabbed a change of boxers, socks and trousers.
Changed into the new clothes. Wrapped the shit and clothes up together (trousers were salvageable, rest was not), into the carrier bag and into a nearby bin. Went to work. Made it to lunch time before coming home.
The poor cunt who emptied that bin

You went on to work after that? You soldier.
Yeah, tip of the cap on that one.
My mate once rang me to tell me he'd shit himself in an alleyway/small street. He'd stopped for a piss but the shit came too. It was early evening and I think he sheltered behind a car to change out of his shit-filled boxers as a family wandered past unaware. He chucked his shitty boxers over a wall into what turned out to be a graveyard.
Had a mate who went clubbing till 5am then went to work, shat himself in his office chair and had to call his mum to pick him up. Gave the janitor/office admin 200 quid plus however much it cost to replace the chair to not mention it to anyone.
I shit myself at my cousin's after do for his wedding. Stuck me boxers behind the toilet like a pro, all whilst his new father in law vomited his spine up in the cubicle next to mine.
That sounds like exactly what I expect from a wedding in Bury. Maybe an extended Gyppo family doing lines off the 3rd stall but outside that? Nailed it.
We had Zak Dingle and a fight so pretty much.
I'm here to talk about marinated portobello mushrooms, because they are the absolute shit.
Slice a few up, put them in the fridge with some oil, balsamic, onions & garlic. The next morning, fry it all up and have it on a sandwich with some good blue cheese & hot sauce. Glorious.
That does sound pretty sweet.
I've got my mate's mum's home made pakora for lunch.
Walkers Max Strong Jalapeno and Cheese flavour might just be the best crisps ever.
Boydy wins this round.
