Moderators PowerButchi 7,974 Posted March 2 Author Moderators Report Share Posted March 2 How do you get on in the States for a curry? Every time I see it mentioned on American media It's always associated with somoen in a sitcom going "Ugh, it smells like Indian Food!" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember one of the first times I went for a curry over here, ordered a vindaloo and got asked how spicy I wanted it, a real "wtf" moment. In general it's quite expensive and quite bland. That said, I've had some good experiences here and there, funnily enough one place was a "Brit-Indi" takeaway run by a scottish bloke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like that mild lamb tikka in ketchup I've had to fucking pour down my gullet then, with underdone rice, and a burnt poppadom.  Massively disappointed. It was a bland bastard, they forgot my Keema Naan, and instead of the litre of full fat coke I ordered they gave me a fucking 330ml tin of Pepsi max.  "Sorry brother, I'll drop it off in a bit" "The thing is you fucking won't though, will you?" "You'll be sent them next time you order"  I won't be ordering again, but it's me who lost. Edited March 2 by PowerButchi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators neil 2,216 Posted March 2 Moderators Report Share Posted March 2 Thats worthy of a 1 star review IMO. Nothing more disappointing than waiting for your glorious takeaway and then to have it be ruined by poor service. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators PowerButchi 7,974 Posted March 2 Author Moderators Report Share Posted March 2 (edited) They've a shitload of 5 star reviews on that shithouse Just Eat. My complaint will be lost to the ether. I'm just really angry about the tin of Pepsi Max. I like a big bottle of proper sugar filled full fat coke as I want a fucking big bottle of sugar filled full fat coke as opposed to the tin of brown fizzy water which is a sugar free pepsi max. Especially when it's pricemarked 49p, as opposed to the (frankly extortionate) £2.50 i paid for 1.25l of proper Coca Cola. Mind you, I must look like a mug and they see me coming. as the shop by mine sells some cheap Dr Pepper analogue called Dr Faygo and it cost nigh on two fucking quid for a can.

Merzbow 3,505 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Ha Faygo is the cheapest, nastiest drink in Detroit only really made famous by the Insane Clown Posse. I'm sure it's Panda Pop levels of cheap there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paid Members Thunderplex 2,190 Posted March 3 Paid Members Report Share Posted March 3 Butch, put a complaint in on Just Eat about the missing stuff.  You’ll get a refund and probably a £5 credit to keep you sweet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paid Members scratchdj 2,658 Posted March 3 Paid Members Report Share Posted March 3 We ordered a curry from our local place via JustEat a couple of weeks ago. It was 1hr 40mins late and stone cold when it arrived. JustEat said the “best” they could offer was a £20 voucher for my next order (the whole lot came to a few pence shy of £40). I asked for a supervisor to phone me, which to my surprise, they did. She offered me the “very best” of a £25 voucher but I held firm. 5 minutes on hold and they gave me the full refund. They’re fucking sharks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know you, but the fact that you say "full fat coke" makes me think you need your hard drive checked..... Coke/pepsi Diet coke/pepsi Coke zero/Pepsi max.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Thunderplex 2,190 Posted March 3 Paid Members Report Share Posted March 3 I’ve found that when ordering an Indian, something always is missing, where’as never had a wrong order from a Chinese place.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
