Japanese name modifiers? Ooh! Can we call you Q-chan? Or Winner-san? By the way, is curry what you people use to refer to "Indian cuisine"?

Don't you mean "What you say!"?

"By the way, is curry what you people use to refer to "Indian cuisine"?"

What do you mean, "you people"?
If you mean, "the British", then curry is a particular type of indian cuisine that we absorbed into our culture and then bastardised to the point of non-recognition in most take-aways.

I'm trying to think of a handy curry identification chart, but I can't get beyond the following:

1/ Does it have the name of an animal (most likely chicken or lamb), followed by a sauce name that you've never encountered outside of non-US Constitution cuisine?

2/ Does it make you desperate for a beer after?

Daryus has probably got a more complete checklist.

Well, you're wrong on one thing: "beef," "lamb" and so forth do not appear on Indian menus. It's all "meat" - "Meat Rogan Josh," "Meat Vindaloo." And so on. . .

And you really don't want to know what they mean by "Meat".

Meat Joe Black's meat.

I heard of Meat Biriyani, I think, in a fun dentist sketch of "Smack The Pony". What's in that?

It depends on the restaurant. Some use lamb on their menu to mean lamb, but 'meat' is sometimes used for beef. Others use 'meat' to mean 'lamb'. It's usually a good idea to clarify before you order.

Kosh - What the F*ck do you mean by that? Twat.

Actually what I've found is that when they use the term 'meat' it means beef. Its just written that way to stop various Hindus from storming the place and burning it down for selling beef.

Anyhow, every one I have been to (and that is a fair few) marks everything well.
