Do people order in for nights alone? I'd never considered this. Hmm.

Could be interesting next time DH works away.

BarbaraofSeville · 20/08/2019 21:07

Neither. McDonald's is desperation food that you eat when there's no other option and Domino's is mega money for shit pizza.

I spend a lot of summer catering solely for me as no DC and DP is usually doing his summer jobs that take him away a lot and I take the opportunity to eat exactly what I like which means the vegetarian Indian Street food bar that DP doesn't like, M&S reduced counter that he complains about small portions, prawns, garlic sauce and good bread which is quick, easy and delicious and the odd dinner of gin, crisps, cheese and olives.

I am obvs a middle class wanker. I hate Dominos and we have no MaccyD round here. So my choice for lunch would be to drive to the M&S foodhall for a prawn layer salad and a crusty loaf! 😀

goose1964 · 20/08/2019 21:24

If it had to be takeaway I'd have a chicken jalfrezi and mushroom bhaji.

ElizaDee · 20/08/2019 21:31

I'd get dominoes if that's the only two choices and it was being delivered.

I don't like dominoes though, so for lunch alone I'd get dirty chicken shop.

For dinner I'd get Chinese or Indian.

Tinyandpetite · 20/08/2019 21:35

I went to KFC while daughter is staying with my mum. It was lovely. I hope you enjoy, I live a dominoes x

TheDarkPassenger · 20/08/2019 21:36

Pizza Hut for me cos dominos gluten free is vile. If I was digestionally retarded I’d go dominos!

StillCoughingandLaughing · 20/08/2019 21:36

Of those two options, Dominos, because a) I’m a veggie and the McDs veggie burger is nothing special and b) McDonald’s is only ‘okay’ and b) you’ll probably get a second lunch out of a large pizza; especially if you get wedges or similar as well. That way you can convince yourself it wasn’t too naughty to pig out on pizza unless you just think ‘bugger it’ and scoff the lot .

TheDarkPassenger · 20/08/2019 21:36

Wasn’t lmao*

CoffeeRunner · 20/08/2019 21:37

From just your two options I’d go for Dominos.

I only like the breakfasts from McDonalds 🤷‍♀️.

Greeborising · 20/08/2019 21:38

I’d have a doner kebab 🥙 and deny it

Hannah4banana · 20/08/2019 21:40

Definitely domino's with lashings of garlic and herb dip for the crusts Blush

golddustwomen · 20/08/2019 21:41

Dominos the sizzler every single time!!

Where’s the vote button OP?
Golden opportunity.

My vote is dominos though.

Auramigraine · 20/08/2019 21:52

Dominoes gets my vote 🍕

Atlasta · 20/08/2019 21:57

Pizza. I really don't rate Domino's very highly though. Try an independent one. All ours are much nicer and loads cheaper.

Gingerkittykat · 20/08/2019 22:03

I hate Dominos, got to be the worst pizza out there and they are so mean with their cheese and ridiculously expensive.

I'd get a fillet of fish, chips, cheese bites and apple pie. I'd drink water to be healthy. Grin

thepurplepenguin · 20/08/2019 22:15

I was hungover today and had McDonald's for lunch and then Pizza Hut for dinner. Best of both worlds. And I'm fine now after all that fat and sugar!

Ontheboardwalk · 20/08/2019 22:23

I’ve never had a bad Dominos delivered (well ok I have but it’s been sorted straight away). I’m really not sure of a McDonalds takeaway. Me ordering and driving to my own house 10 mins away can result in minging cold fries.

What is delivered McDonalds like??

skybluee · 20/08/2019 22:31

McDizzler

Yogurtcoveredricecake · 20/08/2019 22:36

Domino's. I'll have a veggie supreme, garlic pizza bread and some chicken strippers. Extra BBQ sauce.

flyingspaghettimonster · 20/08/2019 23:59

Yabvu - Maccas? Shudder what a godawful abbreviation.

I couldn't order either as my lack of gall bladder would pass it before it hit my stomach. Indian though... mmmm

Toneitdown · 21/08/2019 01:44

I know you've ordered by now but I'd have gone for Macca's

uppershopping · 21/08/2019 06:15

Yabvu - Maccas? Shudder what a godawful abbreviation.

You've never heard that abbreviation? It's older than the hills down under. No need for the shuddering.

So today is the day I order domino's I think. I'll get a maccas next week.
