Just ordered take away, chicken jalfrezi, rice, nan and chips - got home and i have beef jalfrazi; i don't like beef in a curry! Would i be unreasonable to telephone and let them know?
I order from here regularly and they are lovely. Wwud

Grin Jen. An MN family reunion Grin

JenLindleyShitMom · 27/08/2016 19:59

We should order takeaway to celebrate being all together! Grin

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:01

I've even got Prosecco Jen. If you're up for slugging that, eating pizza, and watching The X Files, swing on by Grin

I'm just Shock at rice, naan and chips to go with just one curry. Are you a weightlifter?

Tallulahoola · 27/08/2016 20:06

Chips with curry should be against the law

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:07

Nickname, I don't know about the OP, but when we get takeaway like that, it's usually shared between a gang of us. So we all just get a little bit of everything. Like what I listed ^ up there. I didn't eat it all myself (though I probably could manage it if I put my fat arse back in to it Grin). Just had a wee serving of everything.

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:09

Tallulah Shock chips with curry are spectacular. Especially when doused with vinegar. I'm probably a filthy beast, though Grin

JenLindleyShitMom · 27/08/2016 20:09

Ooh prosecco! Thanks dad! Grin

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:10

I'm guessing 3 in 1s / 4 in 1s aren't a thing in the UK?

CosmicOwl · 27/08/2016 20:10

I love chips with curry, in fact I usually order chips, rice, naan AND poppadom with my curry. I sometimes have a curry, rice and hip sandwich. Blush

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:11

Grin Nay bother, Jen.

NicknameUsed · 27/08/2016 20:12

We share as well. OH, DD and I share one rice and one naan between the three of us. I was surprised at one meal with three carb accompaniments.

We aren't holier than thou about healthy food though, our local Indian has huuge portions.

Bennytheball - Curry and Chips is lush!

KitKat1985 · 27/08/2016 20:13

I'm also Shock at rice, naan and chips. I'd be stuffed out after three different carb side-dishes!

KittensWithWeapons · 27/08/2016 20:15

So does ours, Nickname. We're just greedy buggers Grin. In our defence, that meal was shared with my heavily pregnant sister. She was craving little bits of everything Wink

tshirtsuntan · 27/08/2016 20:17

I like to keep beer as one of my carbs -burrrrp- Grin

Hmm slightly drunken strike through failure...

What a non event. This is on a par with "I need to pee. AIBU to go and pee? God I hope someone replies with an answer soon..."

Ginkypig · 27/08/2016 20:38

Go and pee!

IWouldLikeToSeeTheseMangoes · 27/08/2016 20:44

Thanks Ginky What would we do without mumsnet when it comes to making major life decisions?!

ClashCityRocker · 27/08/2016 20:47

dustarr73 · 27/08/2016 20:53

ClashCityRocker its a chinese staple here.Its fried rice/chips/curry sauce ALL IN ONE TRAY.

And now they have spice bags or boxes.Chips with chili salt/peppers chicken.Its massive.

Botanicbaby · 27/08/2016 21:26

I get how the OP can be annoyed but it is a strange AIBU topic.

I once ordered vegetable dhansak and they gave me prawn dhansak instead which I couldn't eat. Couldn't be arsed going back out to change it so phoned them & they offered to give free one with next order or refund me. Which was fine though it spoilt a nice cosy night in.

Never heard of chips and curry didn't realise that was a thing but respect to the OP for curry, rice, nan AND chips!

Ifeelyourpain2 · 27/08/2016 21:50

YABU for ordering triple carbs, I do half of a rice and half of a naan and that's bad enough, but chips too Shock
