Curry! Even though I have to make my own if I want it, because there's no Indian take-aways where I live, and the only Indian restaurant is a 45 minute drive away, and apparently you put your life on the line if you eat there.
If I want curry I make my own, which I've became quite good at now. Grill the chicken Tikka outside on skewers on the BBQ. sling in in my sauce that I have cooking on a burner attached to the BBQ (because my wife won't let me cook it in the house because "It stinks!").
I'm pretty good at making pizza too, which I think would maybe be my second choice (basically cos' there's nowhere round here that does kebabs, there's one restaurant that does the gyros things, but it's really expensive).
I'm sick of Chinese food though, it OK, but it's crap compared to the ones back in England, and you can't buy Chips at em' either (although some do fries, but they're crap!).
after a search through my take away menus ive come to realise that you can only buy the same things from each, so what do you like to order.
There are a million (well, well over two dozen) takeaways within easy walking distance of my house, and they more or less all sell the same things, for more or less the same prices. Sadly, there are NO English chip shops close by :-( To avoid cries of racism, I must point out that by "English" I mean places that concentrate on the fundemental wares of a traditional English chippy, such as chips, fish, steak pies, gravy etc. Instead they mostly do frozen chips (nowhere near as nice as proper chippy chips that are cooked properly), three types of gravy (all weird and horrible), tiny fish that taste spicy, and so on, prefering to concentrate instead on the Indian/Chinese/Cantonese etc meals (not that there's anything wrong with that for those who prefer that, but I want real fish 'n' chips).
Anyway, I put Southern Fried Chicken (yum yum yum), though I would definately have put chips instead if that had been an option.
The humble potato - the only vegetable worthy to be called food.

i only like my local chippys, i went to a chippy in york and asked for chips with bits, the woman went eh?, i said chips with bits, you know cat bits, she went oh yeah you mean scraps, i said no, i mean bits and if you want me to say scraps you can fuck off and i'll go somewhere else. ( i made the last bit up) stupid cow. if i wanted scraps id have eaten them off the floor.

Scraps it is. None of this poncey southern "bits" or what-have-yer. And going into any fast food establishment and requesting cat bits is just asking for trouble.

Totally agree with that, theres a nice chinese where i love but their actual fish n chips is horrible, the fish n chip shop which solely does that is beautiful in the town i live, best one i've tasted in years.

I like kebabs, but the whole halal thing puts me off. Plus I've heard their made up of cows eyelids and sheeps fannies.
As for chickens... I definately couldnt eat one of my pets.

What kind of ferret are you? Couldn't eat a chicken, you're supposed to latch onto their throats and rip them out with your teeth!!!! :lol:
