Oooh either crispy shredded beef with salt and pepper chips, or go for a curry and have tandoori chicken with saag paneer and an onion bhajee.

Now I'm hungry!

ISpyCobraKai · 06/10/2021 19:13

Extra large chicken kebab and chips.
2×garlic sauce, 1 chilli sauce.
also a sneaky ham and mushroom pizza

Footprintsonthemoon1 · 06/10/2021 19:13

Chicken tikka kashmiri with nut pilau and a peshawari naan bread, god I want that now. Enjoy your night op

clary · 06/10/2021 19:14

Pad Thai and crispy prawns from Wagamama.

Or a fish curry only I like, with peshawar nan

Last time I was take awaying for one I went down the list on Just Eat and picked a cuisine I'd not tried before. So I had some Nepalese momo dumplings among other things and they were very nice.

whatwouldyouchoose18 · 06/10/2021 19:15

I was thinking Chinese! Grin

It's a big decision to make. Alone time and no cooking so bloody excited!!!

Delivery around here is pretty much limited to pizza or not brilliant Indian but at my old house there was a great afghan restaurant that delivered

Weedsorwishes · 06/10/2021 19:15

Ooo this is like the dream for me 😂

If Chinese I would order vegetarian hot and sour soup, steamed Sui mai and mixed meat chow mein. Or if I was going to the other Chinese in the next village then their wonton soup followed by salt and pepper tofu with boiled rice

Indian would be lamb biryani, saag panner and a peshwari naan

Chip shop would be salt and pepper calamari, fish, cheesy chips and a pot of garlic mayonnaise

I'm hungry now!

Chicken fried rice, chips and a tub of curry sauce from the Chinese 😋

whatwouldyouchoose18 · 06/10/2021 19:17

@PivotPivotPivottt

Yes chips and curry sauce!!

emmathedilemma · 06/10/2021 19:22

Fish & chips or a pizza......actually, as get takeaway pizza you might as well buy a supermarket one and save some £ for all the effort it takes to put it in the oven!
I wouldn't get Chinese or Indian on my own because the mixed starters and sides are the best bit and not worth getting on your own!

shepabear · 06/10/2021 19:24

If it was Chinese I'd go for Singapore noodles, some salt and chilli chicken or prawns and a pot of Chinese curry sauce.

If I fancied Indian food I'd go for a chicken tikka pathia, keema rice and a garlic naan. And a couple of popadoms of course!

Roonilwazlib1 · 06/10/2021 19:26

Ooh I'd have to see what I fancied on the day but probably an Indian (butter chicken, extra sauce, pilau rice, keema naan) or fish, chips, and gravy from the chippy.

toolazytothinkofausername · 06/10/2021 19:26

With Chinese food it is important to remember to order enough to have it for dinner and breakfast Grin

whatwouldyouchoose18 · 06/10/2021 19:26

Some great ideas, might try something new!

I love seafood & he doesn't

Might feed my 🐟 cravings......

Sounds bliss OP. I'd have chicken fried rice, salt and pepper chips, salt and pepper chicken, chicken spring rolls and a can of Coke. God I am so jealous - enjoy Wine

I would get a dominoes because DP isn't a fan (I see where he is coming from but I like them anyway!

whatwouldyouchoose18 · 06/10/2021 19:29

It's a little bit of heaven....

I've got three under 4 & the thought of getting them to bed ( pray they sleep long enough for me to stuff my face ) & sitting down with a delightful feast and full control of the tv just excites me to the core!

MintyGreenDream · 06/10/2021 19:32

King prawn fried rice,chips,curry sauce and mini spring rolls

whatwouldyouchoose18 · 06/10/2021 19:33

If a Chinese it has to be duck in plum, chicken ku po, egg friend rice and a pot of sweet and sour sauce.

If an Indian chicken dansak, boiled rice, sag aloo, plain naan mango chutney.

(Side eyes pot of chilli cooking and wonders if DH wants to go get a curry instead)
