fking hour though I could walk there and back in 20 mins even drive there 5 mins both ways ,problem then is something else grabs your eye on the menu fk that
Stay off JE lads. Go direct, or the only one that wins is JE.

Takeaways are going to have to add JE’s margin, which is huge, onto their menu prices if we stop going direct.

Depends on how established the take away is. If it's a well-established place with good customer base the chances of making less profit is higher due to regular customers also moving to JE due to comfort and ease.

I don’t agree. There’s not a lot left to call a living for the vendors as it is, and JE isn’t helping.

The market is the market. JE makes it easy, but I don’t think they bring in extra business overall.

Every pound JE makes (a lot) comes from one or more of price, quality, portion size, or the vendor’s living.

Just go direct, it’s barely any more work for us, or in a few years every takeaway will be 30% more expensive, or 30% crapper, with no benefit to vendor or buyer.

I had a Wimpy for breakfast last week. They’re still a thing in South Africa it seems. It was quite good, and bloody cheap.

Disagree. I order a stload more takeaway since JE or Deliveroo happened. In fact I almost never ordered takeaways before, other than the odd Pizza Hut, because I’m in central London and don’t have a car, and couldn’t be asked to go on the tube to grab some grub.
I think JE and Deliveroo just increased the size of the market massively, at least in London.

Sorry, you're right, I should have been more specific. WRT to the additional delivery services, then I agree, they are providing a service and increasing the market.

I was meaning when it's something you were going to buy and either collect or had delivered by the takeaway themselves anyway, then please avoid JE and go direct. smile

Like many people on this thread, I am not that familiar with the concept of 'leftovers', however the combination of an overly generous order from the local Nepalese place last Sunday and a busy week meant that I've just consumed the last portion of a week old curry.

It seemed perfectly fine, but how long does a takeaway curry last if just kept in the fridge? (I cooked the rice fresh though)
I think week old curry, (not frozen and defrosted) I would shy away from.

I might sometimes add a sag aloo to a curry order to add to an omlet the following day but not a week after.
Spices preserve it. If it smelt/tasted fine, it was fine.
A lot of the problem with curry is the method used to make it. Some places use a base gravy that's made up a couple of days prior then sits around and then goes back on the stove when they open and they keep it warm for 8 hours. Any left.... back in the fridge... Other places make from scratch which keeps better.

I think the key is to get it cold quickly when its left over then re-heat to a really high temperature so its steaming hot.

Personally I don't keep for more than 2 days just in case its already a couple of days old when I get it!
