Indian takeaway

[ethelina]

My husband thinks I am BU because I always order the same food because I know I like it. He changes his order all the time and is disappointed as often as he is pleased.

I really can't be arsed to buy stuff I might hate - what a waste of a takeaway!

YANBU- I do the same!

YANBU as long as you always try what your dh orders

If he changes his order all the time, taste his

My husband is you and I am your husband.

I have only once been disappointed!

Be adventurous! Try something new.

DH and I have the same everytime.

We had friends around recently and so ordered something diffent. I especially liked the peshwari chicken.

Chicken dopiaza, plain rice, sag aloo. Nothing else comes close.

He had lamb rogan, it was too hot for him, waste!

YANBU, I am a fussy eater and there are only a couple of things I like from the Indian or Chinese, like you said why waste the money to get something you might not enjoy?

I change all the time and if DH won't change, I just order something different for him. He eats what he's given.

I alternate - one time a fave, one time something new. it does feel like a waste if you odn;t like it but when you fins a gem it makes it all worth while

YANBU I always have one of two things, DP on the other hand almost always has something different

i thought it was racist to say "indian food" so they proclaimed on the other thread

How is it racist when it says Indian takeaway on the front of the firgging menu?

Isn't it recipes from India (adapted to our taste)?

Yorkshire pudding recipes are from Yorkshire are they not?

Oh don't start that again please judge yawn

YANBU, if you like it, and it won't be a waste of money, then order it. Tell him he is BU for wasting food and money! I very rarely change my order, and if I do, it is to something very similar to my usual order - creature of habit me!

I always had the same too, until new people took over the takeaway next to our shop. Their chef has learned how hot I like my food and I've become much more adverturous. Sometimes instead of ordering something specific I just say 'surprise me' and have only been disappointed once - that time I got my DH to swap with me!

Occasionally if I order my 'usual' vegetable biryani they will put in an extra dish to try.

Why are they not called Pakistani takeaways if they are owned and run by Pakistanis?

Is there a difference?

I always have the same thing. DH is currently out collecting my onion bhaji, lamb vindaloo, plain rice and poppadom.

YANBU

That makes me sound like a right demanding cow. He is, of course, collecting his own dinner too.

Aah now I have just looked at the takeaway menu and it does in fact state "Indian Cuisine" so in this instance I believe I am safe in calling it "Indian Takeaway.

We have a bangladeshi restaurant and takeaway - am now worried if we are not allowed to call it that.

I tend to stick with the same couple of things from the Indian as it's normally a night off for me and want to enjoy it. But I will happily cook and try lots of different dishes at home, I believe in spreading the disappointment amongst the whole family if its not that nice

we have a (very rare) Nepalese restaurant locally. "Shall we go for a Nepalese?" is never heard.

we have a Nepalese takeaway right up the street from us too......quite an interesting cuisine - some dishes are very much like indian ones, others more closely resemble chinese dishes....
