#currymile While there are a few local takeaways pitching up, there's also a fair bit of...proper street food like bhel/paani puri. :adore:

But yeah, what Ki said. It's free, man. I ain't one to complain. Though you do have to pay for some foods. :angry:

you're indian ffs. Does what you eat at home taste different than restaurant food? Whenever I ate Indian food it would be from a restaurant so I put the different taste down to it simply being restaurant food, but then I tried some Pakistani restaurant food and it sort of tasted similar to what we cook at home so now I conclude that Indian and Pakistani food often tastes different :pierre:

unless it's my dad cooking.

Yeah, I find that homemade stuff is totally different to restaurant food. Biased towards me mam of course, but homemade is so much better. Restaurants are like wedding caterers, so much ghee and oil. :moon:

Inshallah you never taste Aman's chicken biryani, you'll never eat Indian again. :rofl2:

What's the difference? I was thinking that restaurant Indian food tastes like home made indian food because the Pakistani restaurant food I tried tasted home - made :colonhash:

bad logic...

That's because a lot of restaurants ARE wedding caterers, perhaps? Went to a mehndi once and there was a buffet with samosas and kebabs :coma:

But yeah so much oil, you kinda have to mix the dish for a little while to move the oil out of the way :indiff:

Have you tried her chicken biryani? :zomg:

Reply 2095

I bought samosa chaat today and I swear the guy had put daal on it, is that normal? And pineapples and olives too :s-smilie:
