We had a work night out, 9 of us, to celebrate someone's birthday. We ate at a local Indian restaurant, which is a favourite of people at my work place. The woman sitting opposite me is vegetarian, as was the woman on my right. I get on very well with both of them. I'm not vegetarian but eat loads of veggie food. I ordered a vegetarian thali - which was quite substantial. (Onion bhaji, samosa, rice, raita, saag paneer, a puri a chickpea dish, and a vegetable curry.) Neither of my colleagues had noticed this dish on the - large- menu before, or ordered this dish anywhere else. They commented on it repeatedly saying how good it looked and what was in it? Whenever they did this I said they were more than welcome to try some. (I'm used to sharing and tasting in this way when eating out with family and friends.) But on each occasion they said no, as if they couldn't possibly and it would be rude.
They asked me again about the dish when I was at work the following day
It just seemed a bit daft not to help themselves as they were so obviously curious and I would have been happy to share.
