No Tiffany, curry is not horrible, it’s just not to your liking!

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

I like curry, but it doesn't like me, I dislike beer, and besides which I don't think it is wise to drink alcohol in very hot weather.

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

Have to admit I don't like the idea of a curry on a really hot day...although I'm sure the science behind it is valid......but a nice cold beer sounds lovely especially if you put the glass you are serving it in in the freezer for ten minutes before pouring it......delicious

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

can't even stand the smell of curry, makes me want to throw up. If people must have a meal of curry they should have it in the middle of Salisbury Plain where the stink doesn't affect others
India must loose out on the tourist trade because no one what a holiday with that terrible smell all the time

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

Years ago when I was a child my youngest uncle was training to be a doctor. He brought one of his colleagues over to our home island, a chap from India. He offered to cook one of his speciality curries for my grandmother and her sons. Apparently it was as hot as the mythical hell my grandmother was always threatening me with.

To me it's horrible, if it was the only food available I would rather starve.

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

We have a local take away, three generations from Lahore, selling the basics at a good price. We have a box of chicken biryani minus the chicken (mostly bone anyway) and a couple of dollops of sauce, one medium, one hot: £5.00. Microwaved at home, feeds two, yum. Plus a dollop of Tesco fat free greek style yogurt.

I drink water with it, have some cheese & wine a little later.

Re: A Curry or a Cold Beer?

The best thing to cool your mouth down after a hot curry is a yoghurt based drink such as Lassi or a Raita dip but I agree a glass of cold Kingfisher or Cobra does go down well.

Personally I think hot curries and hot weather go together perfectly but then I do live just a few doors away from an Indian restaurant, so I can always smell the curries firing up during the day which never fails to make me hungry.

One of the nicest things about Kandy in Sri Lanka is that you can smell all the spices in the air over the whole of the city. Fantastic!
