Morning internet fatties, how about some curry for breakfast?
Today I am talking about food icons. Like the KFC bargain bucket, but more classy.

The Indian restaurant up the road used to sell a feast for two called the Terry Waite Special. It was allegedly the meal that Terry Waite ordered at the place when he was released from captivity.

The main course was a bed of curried mince beef, 4 whole curried eggs, and a whole curried chicken. There were two enormous plates of rice with cheese melted over the top, sag aloo and two nan breads stuffed with (you guessed it) curry.

It was delicious, nutritious, and you'd take a week to digest it, but now the place has changed owners and it is no longer available. Terry Waite would be turning in his grave if here were dead.

I thought that meant
It had been cooked slowly beside a radiator.

Ha ha ha, definitely

Your icons make it look like you're just talking to yourself.

Shut up you cock, they have different names.

I once had an amazing sandwich that was essentially a curry in two slices of bread
chicken tikka, onion bhaji, mango chutney, raita, all in a big thick chunk of bread.
I might make my own tomorrow.

Yes. I'm going to make one. Two, I'm going to make two.

If it's still running in January
go see The 39 Steps at the Criterion, Piccadilly. It's terrific fun, and jolly amusing too. Go have a look in Fortnum and Mason while you're there too.
A tenner will get you a ride on a rickshaw (useless for actually going anywhere, but it's a fun ride)
Speaker's Corner on a Sunday morning for arguing fun.

excellent
she loves the 39 steps.

EDIT: gah, we're there sat till mon evening, and busy the sat night. There isn't a sunday show or a monday matinee. good shout though, thanks.

By "make"
You mean "go to Tesco and reheat their crap, then assemble it" don't you?
(I helped save b3ta! Lord Gnome, Thu 13 Nov 2008, 10:21, archived)
Certainly not.
The only ready-made ingredient will be the tandoori spice blend I add to the lemon juice which I've put in the yoghurt with which to marinade the chicken overnight, a small part of the yoghurt being left over for the raita (yoghurt, chopped mint, wee bit of chilli powder, even smaller bit of olive oil), onion bhajis are a piece of piss to make, and then I'll go get some hugely crusty bread from the bakers down the road and bring it all together in an orgy of sandwich nirvana.

I bet you don't milk the cow or farm the grains for the bread, you fuckin' slave to the supermarkets.

I approach this story with scepticism
I think after years in captivity his appetite would be seriously curtailed and so he would eat very small amounts.

Maybe he had a really big doggy-bag.

(I helped save b3ta! Druid, Thu 13 Nov 2008, 10:16, archived)
He just sat on the toilet and ate continuously for 16 hours

(I helped save b3ta! Theoban What of it, Thu 13 Nov 2008, 10:17, archived)
IIRC, the appetite is not diminished, however he would have to be careful not to over-eat as he could kill himself.
A large number of concentration camp victims died as a result of overeating after liberation.

I've heard that
Never seen anything to back it up, so I'm not sure if it's an urban myth.

I went into a pub in Great Yarmouth once
Which had a sign outside saying "Come in and try our famous pie" so I did. It was vile. Didn't say on the advertising just what it was famous for.
(I helped save b3ta! Lord Gnome, Thu 13 Nov 2008, 10:18, archived)
Sign worked though

(I helped save b3ta! Bobson I who milks the milkmen?, Thu 13 Nov 2008, 10:21, archived)
Sure did.
I walked past it for four days until I fell prey to the temptation of wondering why that particular pie was so famous. I wish I'd had the internet at home then, I'd have Googled "Great Yarmouth" and "pie" and found everything I needed.

[Edit] No I wouldn't- I'd have found out everything I never wanted to know about Great Yarmouth Pier.

There's a pub here that sells pies for £3.14.
And they have a trainset and bar billiards and very attractive barmen. I love it.

You'll need some sort of catchphrase/catch-action.
I'm thinking along the lines of a Bill'n'Ted style air guitar solo, or was that Wayne'n'Garth?

Or maybe you can do a robot dance, where someone unexpected happens, like you press a button behind your ear, and some skates appear from the bottom of your boots, and then you do some sort of figure-skate manovour, and then you get out your air-hockey-stick, and whack an air-puck, but it makes a real-life ding sound.
