Oh, I dunno...*looks sheepish*...

How about:

Spare Ribs
House special Chow Mein
Portion of Rice
Full Portion Of chips
Prawn Crackers
Portion Of Curry Sauce.
Sweet & Sour Chicken Balls

Then I'd have to think about what to have for a main course!

Nah, seriously...that is my standard order for the whole family.

...yet the present Mrs PF and both flakelets are all very slim...and I look like a genetic experiment involving the unholy merging of a wild hippo and the Goodyear Airship.

Guess that explains how the portions are dished out?

nom indeed
so the flakelets get a grain of rice for every year they have been alive..

a chicken ball between them..

and the bones from the ribs.

and even then you are scoping if they have any left overs.

My kids don't actually like chinese to be honest. I have found this out time after time, after ordering a seizure sized order and having to wade through it myself

"we told you last time we don't like noodles,or spring rolls or that beef stuff or that chicken stuff"

"well, go and make some toast then, i'll take care of all this, don't worry"

A good family portion is to get a tandoori mix from the indian takeaway...amazing stuff...a big bag of various flesh products, rice, naan, salad, curry sauce...all for a tenner. It can feed all four of us. Although i have been known to tackle a whole one to myself, and thoroughly regret later.




sort of

The Chinese round here....
Tend to be buffet places. So none of the fun of dozens of metal/plastic containers. The Americans also seem to be ignorant of prawn crackers. :(
