She ordered a Curry and hasn’t paid me

I swear if OP came back and said her friend had come round and dumped the whole £26 on her doorstep in five pence pieces and screamed, “Here you are then - your thirty pieces of silver!! Eat THAT, curry whore!!”, people would still respond “Three naans? And £52?! Mind you, no wonder she wanted a curry if OP was going to serve a tyre, haha! A bit chewy eh?!”

huge compared to where we live, I’m shocked too. A shared starter, two mains, rice and 2 naans is no more than £28 anywhere near us

I can't believe people are still talking about the amount of naans. WHO CARES its not remotely relevant to the OP. They could have ordered 1000 naans and OP's 'mate' would still be a CF.

Those who don't like the thread police should maybe stop being the carb police 😁

As @ThatHazelGuide said, we need a conclusion

Are all naans the same size?

We make curry at home if we have it so I’m genuinely curious …

If people want to comment on the three nans then they can! Because it IS an unusually large amount. Sorry, thread police!

Well exactly. I’ve been in a restaurant and ordered my dish with rice. I’ve then been asked if I want a naan with that. So I don’t think it’s totally unheard of for people to get both. Restaurants will be more than happy for people to buy more!

Also, the word OR can be meant in different ways. It doesn’t always mean it has to be one or the other only. If you’re in a restaurant and you order your main meal, they may ask you “do you want a drink or starter?” It doesn’t mean you can ONLY have EITHER a drink or a starter. It means do you want one or both of those options as well as what you ordered. If I’m in the supermarket with my husband and he buys a sandwich for lunch, I might ask him if he wants some crisps or a chocolate with it. I don’t mean he can ONLY have one of them although he should only have one really I’m just asking if he wants either or both of those as well as.

I have never been to a restaurant that asks if you want naan OR rice that is ridiculous. Does that poster think restaurants would rather you only ordered one of their offerings instead of two?

The only way they’d ask is if you hadn’t ordered any and it was in the context of telling you what’s available. Like you might be asked if you’d like beer or wine, they don’t mean you should only have one or the other.

Did you ever get the money, @OnePeachA ?

Nearly as alarming - the number of people who think they’re the first in 25 pages to make this joke.

I think what’s alarming is that people still think it’s relevant to the question at hand.

This☝️

I agree.

I had a friend who would turn up for a quick drink meet up with a group that never had any money or means to pay. She was subsidised for months. Still managed to have her nails, lashes, brows done and various other spending. She was a user. Eventually everyone got fed up with paying for her.

This thread has been derailed by "how much naan and rice one can eat with a curry".

The question in point is about the CF

I've got very vested in this and need OP to come back and tell us if she has given the CF

A. A good talking too
B. Cut the CF loose
C. Got her money

I need a conclusion

No wonder she wanted a curry😂

Do you think one person ordering a rice and TWO naans for herself is not a massive meal? My DH and I order one rice and one naan between us. I've recently been on Wegovy so I eat much smaller meals than I used to, but even when I was eating much more than was good for me, we still ordered one rice and one naan between us. At a push we might have ordered a second rice if DH was feeling especially hungry or wanted some to use with leftover curry the next day, but who on earth orders TWO naans plus a rice just for themselves?

If you don't think that's alarming then there is something wrong with you.

She planned for you to pay for her curry all along. SHE asked about getting a curry, HER JustEat was 'not working' and then she allowed you to put in YOUR payment details with no argument or suggestion of how she might repay you. It was planned and intentional. You'll be lucky if you get that money.

Apparently not. I'm not in the UK so I've been re-educated.

I think everyone agrees it's a massive meal. For one thing in a restaurant they always ask if you want naan or rice.

Do they? ( to both statements)

The coke I believe, I mean OP got a bottle, but I refuse to believe the triple carbs!

@Bitofanchange Indian restaurants always ask “triple carb or line of coke?” Anyone with a different experience is being preposterous.

*line of coke

”faints” at the mere suggestion of triple carbing!

Preposterous, I doubt anyone would allow this to be served in their restaurant. It’s akin to doing a kind of coke off the table!

My favourite is using the naan to scoop up the rice, Bombay potato and shards of poppadom. That’s my only issue with the OP & CF’s order: why 2 rice and 3 naan when you can share a rice and 2 naan, thus making room in the budget for potatoes and some pakora.

I think you’re right about mismatched expectations
