Twas The Night Before Christmas ... Takeaway Time

Morning folks! Ready for the upcoming day we are with my spreadsheet in my mind with our designated jobs. My favourite involves a phone call tonight, takeaway time. Eight years ago we upgraded our tradition of a Christmas Eve takeaway from a Chinese to a Indian takeaway so tonight it will be ears wide open listening out for a tap on the door and the arrival of some food porn.

There is a major cost to an Indian, a Chinese would be cheaper, but if I were to change back, I think there would be a war in the house. The pricy cost is why it is a rarity on the Ugarte takeaway menu but it is worth it No experimentation here straight into my favourite order,

Chicken Tikka Starter
Chicken Curry
Pilau Rice
Chips
Keema Naan

God my kind of heaven and I am already licking my lips in anticipation of tonight’s feast. Therefore, I will be fasting for most of the day to make room for tonight’s meal so I will appreciate it more. Without my old oversized dish I used for my curry, it may take me two sittings to put my meal to bed. Last year I remember it was so close to the rim of my dish it nearly spilt over. I will not take that chance this year.

The others are yet to finalise their orders, bar humbug. Still hours away from the call but still I am excited and want it confirmed so there is no messing around later. Although I believe I know what the wife will want, Britain’s No.1 takeaway, drum roll please, Chicken Tikka Masala. Simon will follow his mum more or less unless I can tempt him with some think off the menu while it’s a case of god knows for David and if James comes for Christmas he will do one and go off into the night.

Love Curry is our preferred supplier we have been using them for the last three years and they click all the right buttons with taste and quantity and even on a busy night like Christmas Eve are prompt with the delivery.
