    I just ordered chicken curry n chips but had no plates left when it arrived! so was lazy and lobbed it all in a bowl and it ended up being better than any plate!!

    Anyone else do this?

    ah no, Grolsch is absolute muck unless it is freezing cold, and even then it is rather poor!

    oh, just looking at your sig, Dave Chappelle rules!

    Wow. A special thread for special people, is it, OP?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Ah yes, the ephermal effect of using a bowl instead of a plate. More suited to humanites though I think.

    grolsch is lovely. Happiest time in my drinking career was walking into a supermarket in holland and seeing row after row of different flavours of grolsch, and filling up a couple of trolleys.

    I have a grolsch towel, it dries well.

    I just cant get into grolsh, no matter how often i try! some of me mates swear by it! I do like the look of the bottles tho, maybe i shud write a letter to heineken!!

    /cue flashback

    .... ah my student days when my staple diet was pot noodles, supernoodles, eggs and Dutch Gold...
    /end flashback

    Long live Dutchies!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,478 ✭✭✭padi89


    I like bowls keeps the food warm longer.In fact i eat alot of food out of the pots ive cooked it in.Not lazyness i just hate by the time you finish cooking to the time you put it on a plate,get a drink,condiments,tv or newspaper etc its lukewarm.I guess i like my food piping hot.

    I prefer the oul bowl me. I hate chasing things round the plate where as with a bowl I ca trap them....mwhahahahaha


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,856 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    no way brother. I like the rice on a plate, and the curry on top. not seperate, but not mixed together. My brother puts it all on the plate, then mixes it around and everything! Not cool.

    What an amazing story.

    It reminds me of that time I was eating a handful of dry cereal and went to take a mouthful of milk....you'll never guess what hit me next.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    Why would you even want to take the curry and chips out of the little aluminium tray that they come in?

    Saves on the washing up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,389 ✭✭✭✭Saruman


    Always put my curry in a bowl.. Have these big Pasta bowls we use for that.
    Makes it less likely you will slop too!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,632 ✭✭✭raheny red


    I'm working at Metalica tomorrow :(

    Oh btw, mushy peas (marrow fat) and mash potatoes and brown sauce all mix together in a bowl ftw yummy :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,095 ✭✭✭MonkeyTennis


    normally i would scoff at such nonsense, BUT chili tastes nicer in a bowl..so ..er..why not


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,073 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori


    In regards to the curry and chips, I can't see a bowl making much of a difference than just having it on a plate.

    Beer - I just don't like it and have never tasted one that's actually nice. It all tastes pretty crap to me. I know that's strange, but I just can't understand the way people harp! on about how lovely beer/lager is?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    umm, so basically you posted to say your dinner tasted better from a bowl than off a plate??????


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    Wash up you lazy **********

    Blasphemy! Never get the stuff in the tray altogether, the sauce dries out!! Besides it was chicken curry not post drinking session long tray 3 in 1 special!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    i am puzzled as to why you would create unnecessary washing up

    FOR SHAME

    How about just using a through?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 599 ✭✭✭New_Departure06


    No. And I prefer Roma pasta and curry anyway. And I prefer to make it myself using curry-powder. Good character building :) .

    I actually eat mine out of a pyrex circular dish, which is brill as it has high sides so it wont go all over you while your watching telly, me and my housemates have one each as we have no 'normal'plates.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    You;re not grown up enough to use plates so you have plastic baby bowls.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,219 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Tbh, sometimes a big bowl of pasta and Swedish meatballs is really the best. Makes you feel like a pig but then, if no-one is watching... :D
