Dont know why i bother with take aways, had 1 last night, worst ever!!!

Here's the pics. a thick greasy puri, a burnt tiny stodgy onion bhaji, a limp lifeless sweaty naan, oh and they forgot my main course a madras which when it came it was just uncooked chilli powder in a sauce. The prawns were on the turn in the korma. Complained, promised a 20 quid refund which never came. It wasn't the Old Western Tandoori by the way!!!

It used to be a great TA, just goes to show you what can happen when chefs move on!!

I can honestly say that I can cook all the dishes I ordered 100 per cent better than that thanks to the power of the Forum!!!!!

Wow that's shocking! I've also had some awful food from local takeaways at times and I'm confident the food I cook at home beats the majority of the local fare by a margin. One local takeaway served up a curry made from a clearly defective base - it leaked water into the rice so the base wasn't cooked right before blending.

Sad to say standards have really slipped as the source of immigrant chefs has dried up. I think there are more reasons to learn to cook BIR at home than ever and thankfully more info available than ever before too.

Can't agree more natterjack - this is yet another example of sub standard fare. I bet the regulars on this forum can cook better curries than most of their local takeaways in town. I know I can.
