Food, Drink & Dining Out Best takeaway food?

[mantis]

thai for me too
green curry chicken yum

Tom Yum soup rocks.

 

[Dazb86]

1/4 chicken chips with gravy. (wing piece)

Red Rooster used to be good as fast food. Then at some point they decided their KFC-quality food deserved Nando's-esque prices.

Which probably explains why so many of them are now closing

 

[ioppolo]

Thai or Korean (or good decent Chinese, none of this battered crap)

 

[BotsMaster]

KFC and then some Indian or Japanese curry.

re Red Rooster, it is a bit of a shame, IMO they are head and shoulders above any other fast food chain of it's type (KFC, McDonalds etc...). Used to get a qtr chicken and chips and a cheeseburger, or a hawaiian pack. But yeah, there were occasions where i'd turn up to get something and they'd "Run out of chicken" and they started microwaving the burgers etc...

That had been happening since the 'Chicken Treat' days. First time we went to Chicken Treat, they'd 'run out of chicken', so for a couple of years after that, I would always start my order with 'do you have any chicken left' lol - best part was most of the time the person behind the counter would go and check

KFC is absolutely rank if it isn't cooked properly. If you don't live in a busy area there's about a one hour window at lunch and dinner where you can get fresh, well cooked chicken and chips. Any other time and the strips and chips have been sitting in the warmer for five hours and are as dry as a day old dog turd. Either that or they have to cook it while you wait and you get raw chips with undercooked chicken.

And don't get me started on them forgetting to put salt on the chips. You may as well just eat cardboard.

I've found that the food quality at KFC varies greatly by outlet. Ditto with McDonalds and Hungry Jacks.

My local outlet is exactly how you described KFC when not cooked properly- dry chicken and soggy chips. They also take an eternity to prepare your food, usually forget serviettes/spoons/refresher towels, and count wings with no meat as chicken pieces.

scallop is a mollusk not a potato cake.

It's called a potato fritter.

Anyway I long for the days when we would order $5 of chips for the entire family. Now the tiny bag is $4.

 

[IAMJUNGLEMUFFIN]

Poll needs more ****ing Kebab or Curry, thanks.

 

[Blood Bath]

Subway. There's nothing that beats a footlong chicken fillet on italian bread, cheddar cheese and toasted with lettuce, onion, tomato, mayonase, south-western sauce with salt/pepper. Coke and 2 choc-chip cookies. Tha Best.

Have a good Asian take-away and Chicken Shop a very close drive from me, so I swap between those.

Adore a good pizza, but given they are bone easy, i generally make my own.

Charminar is a good Indian take away option.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Curry for mine a chicken vindaloo rice and a garlic naan, bloody awesome!

Love good local pizza shop as well but moved earlier this year and still yet to find a decent one. Adelaide people who live near South Plympton any recommendations?

I have a weakness for Maccas breakfast menu

 

[Bobby P]

Kingsleys Chicken.

 

[liam_13]

If all those things were cooked properly - I would go Fish & Chips. At it's best, F&C is amazing.
Pizza 2nd.
The takeaway chain shops like KFC 3rd.

 

[JimDocker]

About once a week, we buy a whole chicken from Red Rooster and do a salad at home to serve with it. Feeds 3 of us and then enough for lunch the next day.

Love good fish and chips.

Burgers from Missy Moos in Fremantle are fantastic. Do the best vegie burger since the old hippie place in Margaret River closed down. Not a cheap option though.

Isn't there a Marcelina on Anzac Highway, near Plympton?

I said decent pizza

Might be a bit of a slog for you to get there (as much as anywhere is far away in Adelaide), but Tusmore Pizza Bar on Greenhill Rd does great pizzas.

 

[Password is Taco]

I love Thai and pizza from The Forge in Ballarat. It is amazing!

 

[I bleed Blue]

Combining 2 of my favourites.

Tandoori chicken pizza. Get around it.

 

[jo172]

Rather get anything non-chain depending on my mood, but when I want pure fast food oporto is magnificent. Strongly suggest people in Adelaide check out http://arribagrill.com.au/

Footlong chicken teriyaki on wholemeal bread, old english cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato, carrot, cucumber, sweet onion sauce, south west sauce, salt and pepper, fresh. With a gold powerade. Perfect lunch.

There was a lunch place near my old work that made peking duck pizza for $4 (could have been 5). Everyone used to order it - Groups of 20 people would order the peking duck pizza. So they got a new chef, changed the menu (got rid of the peking duck pizza) and we all stopped going.

Why do businesses make such stoopid decisions.

 

[Dirtywhirl]

I have taken a liking to Schnitz and Hanaichi recently

The chips at Schnitz are great and their burgers aren't too bad either. Pork Curry Rice at Hanaichi

Anyone tried Crazy Wing on Russell St. Sure it's not healthy and I always order too much but it's so good
