Chinese or Indian takeaway? - Page 5

Indian.

Chinese is good but the vast majority of takeaways use MSG which invariably leads to the Jimmy Smitts.

Indian, obviously

Apparently curry makes me fart a lot. Can't say that I really care about it but a certain someone does.

Indian though... well when I was younger I used to work in an INdian Takeaway (taking calls and sometimes cooking too! Was fun!) and I LOVED how dishes would fuse together! The smells were so aromatic.... really quite amazing. The tastes... they're AMAZING! I love juicy tandoori chicken and lamb... I love it!

However... it is SO filling. It makes me stuffed so easily - the dishes tend to be very heavy and sometimes I just don't fancy feeling like a beached whale. Plus I've seen what goes into some of the dishes and I don't know how I don't have a heart failure when I nom them.

Our Chinese is cheaper than the Indian

By quite a lot too.
But you're right, Indian food does seem much more filling than Chinese.

I suppose Indian is more filling is largely due to the nan bread. Damnit, I want a peshwari nan now!
