It's been a while, I haven't had one since new years eve and it's safe to say I am scandalised.....

For reference it was one bag of salt and pepper chicken balls with a bag of chips

One mixed meat satay with fried rice.

A tub of mixed ribs.

One tub of crispy seaweed but it's not seaweed.

It would be about £25 here

ItsNotRocketSalad · 27/05/2023 19:01

Whatever takeaway I get nowadays ends up at £25-30. There are two of us but we order enough to have leftovers the next day.

AngelasAirpods · 27/05/2023 19:01

Approx 28-32 ish I’m guessing

£30

thespy · 27/05/2023 19:02

I'd say about £35 but here I think is quite expensive.

AndTheSurveySays · 27/05/2023 19:03

About £25

PutinSmellsPassItOn · 27/05/2023 19:03

Yes I know its not massive but we had a large meal at lunch time so not starving starving but had a full on day and couldn't be bothered cooking.

Bloody good job I didn't add on the millions of sides I was dreaming about, I'd have been heading to the bank for an overdraft extension 🤣🤣🤣

I’ve no idea but here is the menu for my favourite place. The couple are sweet & always arguing. They also have a ten ticket £10 off loyalty scheme

I'm more scandalised that that's to feed 3 people 😮

too much or not enough?
(I don't eat meat or buy takeaway 😂😂)

HunterHearstHelmsley · 27/05/2023 19:04

According to Just Eat at a random local takeaway - £27.65

SpikeOfAnnoyance · 27/05/2023 19:05

Where we are, roughly £25 for that

Cerridwen83 · 27/05/2023 19:05

Just ordered virtually identical except we also ordered chicken chow mein! Came to £42 including delivery.

FrenchandSaunders · 27/05/2023 19:06

Well having spent £51 on fish and chips for three people recently …. and I’m still boring people with this … I’d say £50.

ReeseWitherfork · 27/05/2023 19:06

My local’s menu says…
salt and pepper chicken balls £6.30
satay £6.30
ribs £6.30
chips £3.00
seaweed £4.50
egg fried rice £4.00

quick maths… £30.70

Feeding three is impressive 😅

WeBuiltCisCityOnSexistRoles · 27/05/2023 19:07

£27.75

What about delivery fee, or did you collect? <over invested>

£3.50 extra for delivery.

mindutopia · 27/05/2023 19:07

We don’t have all those at ours, but choosing the next closest option was around £26. We live in the arse end of nowhere though and stuff is relatively cheap. But an Indian for Dh and I and 2 primary age dc is about £35-40.

powershowerforanhour · 27/05/2023 19:07

I'd guess £25 but haven't had one in a while.

Dodo2023 · 27/05/2023 19:07

My kids refuse to eat takeaways me and my husband dream of the day we can order whatever we want. No point if I have to cook for them anyway!

CharlottenBurger · 27/05/2023 19:08

About a tenner per person is pretty normal, isn't it, for a dish with rice or chips? You used to be able to get a small doner kebab round our way for £5 but they shut down about 3 months ago.

Dodo2023 · 27/05/2023 19:08

On that note I’d guesstimate £35.00 for your order. The

GladysHeeler · 27/05/2023 19:08

Was it ordered with the takeaway or through UberEats as UberEats is always more expensive.

InceyWinceySpidy · 27/05/2023 19:08

one bag of salt and pepper chicken balls - £5.75

with a bag of chips - £2.80

One mixed meat satay - £7.50

with fried rice. - £4.50

A tub of mixed ribs. - £7.50

One tub of crispy seaweed - £4.25

So that comes too.... £32.30

So anywhere between £30 and £35

MrsBungle · 27/05/2023 19:09

About £30 here

Favouritefruits · 27/05/2023 19:10

£27ish before delivery charge.

Creasedover382 · 27/05/2023 19:11

Around the £30 mark.
