Take away prices
« on: October 03, 2008, 06:30 PM »
Hi all, long time since Ive been on here, great to see some familiar names are still on and trying to acheive the goal we all set out to do. Anyway Ive just moved to Hartlepool and fisrt things first went to check out the local Indian Take aways. I came across what looked like a very run down part of town but it had 3 takeaways all on the same road. I went in to get the menus and found what I consider to be the cheapest take away in uk. 3.30 for chicken vindaloo. Im always a bit sceptical when prices are too low, however I ordered this meal along with rice and nan and it was the best I have ever tasted. Went to another one a few nights later and their chicken vindaloo was ?4.85. I ordered it to check it out and chucked it in the bin when I got home. All I could taste was salt and powder from the spices. The moral of this story is never to assume that the more you pay the better you get. You might only get what you pay for, but not in this game.

You're bang on there. I can get a chicken Madras from Kinross from a Turkish kebab shop that I think is one of the best ever, and it's only a fiver with the pillau rice. Nuts!
