Terrible Meal Out

rawk100

You should have tried the Chicken Tarka, it's similar to Chicken Tikka but just a little 'otter...

Bridgehouse

I have just opened a new Indian restaurant, and we had a real nightmare as the supplier only delivered porridge, glacier cherries and Yorkshire puddings..


Actually, I can't be bothered to type the rest...

Why did the work people give you this free 'gift'. For farting on the phone?

Guitar_Slinger

Sounds more like a promotion than a free gift, someone's got the wrong end of the stick, or it's been sold wrong.

They are actually glacé cherries  but still, should be nowhere near a curry.

I might ask my local Asda to do Vindaloo Donuts.

I did once have a Dhansak with pineapple in it. I was in Hull at the time, though.

That was brave of you! Did you lose a bet or do you just like extreme adrenaline sports?

That's actually pretty common, I prefer it without but seen it loads.

I have a few homemade frozen dhansaks with pineapple in.

The pathia recipe I use has ketchup and mint sauce in. It's frickin awesome (if a little toxic).

I'm not complaining about the pineapple, it actually tasted pretty good, and complimented the sweet/sour nature of the dish, I was simply surprised, as I'd never had it locally before. I don't think a Dhansak of Indian origin would have had fruit in it, though.

Most of the 'Indian' food presented in the UK is far from authentic, it's made of cheap local ingrediants to suit the tastes of the populace. Having an indian meal with indians is a whole nother thing and recommended (Put a bog roll in the fridge before you go though).

Why put your body through such torture....

That's fusion cooking and if someone did it on Master chef, you could bet your arse that Yorkshire Pudding would be the new chef's bread of choice.  It would be in the M&S £10 meal for two and Hipsters would be queuing up in pop-up kebab vans in Shoreditch to pay a fortune for t'burrito, t'kebab and everyone's favourite, th'eggy bread.:)



Back to the OP -are you sure it wasn't all a joke or social experiment about how far people could be messed with, before complaining (or paying to be messed with) and you were being filmed?

No sadly not they were serious.

Have you heard that saying about free lunches?

scrumhalf

I had lunch in a none-too-cheap restaurant in Knightsbridge and was fairly certain that the rice I ordered was actually Tilda's microwave-in-a-bag Lime and Coriander rice. Had I been paying for the lunch I might have argued the point.
