Hiya,
If you've seen the other topic posted by me, you'd know who I am if you don't know already :)
Okay so I was basically just wondering what do you rather or you ain't bothered....
Do you like going to Pakistani/ Indian/ Desi restaurants/ takeaways or English/ American or any other ones? Do you have any personal preference or you ain't really bothered?
I'll get started...
I was brought up in HK. Now there are more desi restaurants but in the past there weren't so many. I remember that for years we all used to go to this one place, an hour away from where we lived, it was a Pakistani restaurant. We used to go there once in a long while. We usually just went to Pizza Hut, McDonald's, a few other places and some Chinese (fastfood) restaurants. And it's a fact that we dined at non-desi places a lot more than at desi place. Mainly probably because there weren't many desi places. But anyway, we cook desi at home, too. One of the reasons we used to go to desi places was just because they do naan. We can't get fresh naan at home ;) lol (and I think also because we got chicken tikka, seekh kebab as well, we didn't use to make them at home really then)
But now I live in England, there are so many desi places, so if I was brought up here, and the way I am, I think I would have gotten fed up of desi places. Perhaps if I wasn't like I am, maybe I wouldn't have gotten fed up. Anyway, I see desi places just like PIzza Hut and other restaurants. So I don't have any personal preference. I like to dine anywhere. But I got some friends in England, they'd always wanna go to a desi place to dine or takeaway. My relatives in England would always get a takeaway from a desi place, they'd rarely ever get any from any other place. So far I haven't even seen them getting anything from a non-desi place. And then I got this one friend, she is sick of desi places.
So yea, what about you? Wanna go to a desi place to dine or takeaway or a non-desi place?
I like all sorts of cusine, I got no favourite ones but I have favourite dishes from every cuisine. lol Basicaly I eat what I love. I don't eat what I don't love. :)

Well just saw ur topic and thought of replying, for me it kinda depends u know, sometimes i like to eat desi traditional food whereas sometimes other kinda of food, it mostly depends on occasion and mood and stuff like that,

But i personally prefer desi traditional one... ^^

And i am not a restaurant kind of a person, i do like to go to a restaurant but once in a while, if there is any kind of occasion, i prefer to order and then eat at home...

hey i'm good. i know coming after ages!! even i posted smth after ages!!! lol just busy with life n all. so much's happened... :$

hmm...i kinda get it. u prefer that coz of the environment ure in. in hk, we hardly do takeaways. we do but sometimes only. we eat at home. we go out and eat too. going to a restaurant was never rare with us.

in england, if u live here, then yea many ppl do takeaways more than dining out. itz coz of the environment/ lifestyle here really.
