I’m convinced it was a ready meal out of Farmfoods that they heated up and took to my door and charged me £30 for the privilege. My arse is in bits today as well.

What the f*** did you have? It was £20.00 tops for 4 of us when we had 4 living here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whiskychimp Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Any charity advert which makes stupid cost comparisons. The newest, and worst, one being, "for just the price of a fish supper a month......." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was £20.00 tops for 4 of us when we had 4 living here.It was called Rice Bowls, absolutely disgraceful food so it was!We always want different things, I wanted some squid and some spicy chips and she wanted soup and then a chow mein so it’s easy to spend more than £20 including delivery. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 £20.00 would have got us 3 main meals + an extra portion of fried/boiled rice as appropriate. What are they charging for delivery? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit out of my delivery area but thanks for the heads up.

throbber Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Yeah it’s great junction street, we had a Chinese from a place there called Sammies which was also shit but nowhere near as bad as rice bowl. I haven’t left a comment about it yet but think I will actually call just eat and tell them how bad it really was. Was the worst take away I have had by some distance.Jacksgranda, they charge £2 for delivery. £28 was what the entire thing came do, it’s really not that much to spend when you get a couple of starters in and want different things. The squid cost £6.50 for example. Most of it went in the bin though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Or not, as it transpired .)It probably is quite steep, when it a Chinese we don’t agree on what we want so spend more. It was nothing short of a disgrace what we got served up compared to the Chinese we are used to! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got one recently from a different place, and it was a bit disappointing, tbh, as was one we got before from another one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ah-dee Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 when we get a Chinese takeawah it will usually come to about £30. chinese, for some reason, always seems to wirk out alot dearer than any other takeaway. she had one last night, £8 special chow mein, £3.80 salt and pepper chips and £4.50 prawn cocktail plus £2 delivery. £18.30 for one person.the indian isnt nearly so dear with their meal deal for 2. £14.95 for 2 pilau rice, 2 currys, vegetable pakora, nan bread, popadoms, pakora sauce and onion chutney. plus £2 delivery. the Chinese in forfar are also a nightmare for making any changes to their set meals. in otherwords no changes! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's cheaper than the Indian I use. However, the delivery charge would probably put it up a bit... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buchan30 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Curry, bajee, nan and rice is fine for 2.We had that, plus pakora and popadoms last night and we were full. Place we went even lets you take your own drink which is a bonus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
