The trouble is , as each curry house does its best to beat the next curry house , the curries get redder and redder , and sweeter and sweeter , until they look and taste more like a pudding. It's the same thing with fish and chip shops . You're hard pushed to find chips that aren't bright orange . They look awful 😖. Maybe I'm just getting old .

Not sure about that, when I used to go out in Leicester regularly we found some superb "authentic" curry houses. Years ago we played three of them off against each other in Dereham. Used to take 30 of us to their quietest evening of the week. Regularly treated like kings and kept their profits up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An old Asian mate used to take me to the Asian versions of greasy spoon cafes in brum . The food was amazing , and about a third of the price of Indian restaurants. Theyre where Asians go for a curry. I had an Indian meal for the first time in ages , on new years eve . I was in agony for two days, but it was worth it😄.

I was coping quite well , until I ate the fried green chilli on top of the curry , and then I ate lins as well. I'd like to say that I've learned my lesson, but I am pretty stupid at times , so I'll probably do it again. The pleck is in Walsall, it's just sort of between brum , and wednesbury . Pleck kebab house was where I had my very first mixed kebab in a fresh naan . My God it was amazing . We all went for a kebab one Friday night at pleck kebab house . My wife and myself, and a few other couples from the pub , and my brother ade. As we walked down the road past the prostitutes , every single one of the prostitutes said " oroight ade ".

I don't know the area very well , I only got to know it once I discovered pleck kebab house , and mixed kebabs in fresh naan. Its a place that I'd never visit on my own , just incase someone saw me in the car , with one of the prostitutes with her head in the window . Imagine trying to explain that one to the wife 😳 .
