Hello all, hope you are well.



The topic for Drivetime tonight is takeaways.



They really complete a Saturday night.



What is your fave?

Have you had any takeaway horror stories?



I'd love to hear your thoughts. Share them on here, or call 225 2390.

Good choice! - what is the best food that goes with the lager?

If I had that much on an empty stomach....I would be on the floor! hehe

These days, I'd say Indian takeaway is my favourite - this also goes very well with lager.



However, if it was back in the days of my much missspent youth, I'd have gone for a nice greasy doner kebab, particularly after coming out of a nightclub at around 2.00 in the morning

Chicken Shish Kebap cooked over charcoal is my favourite.

Sheftalia is also good from the right place, there is a place in Larnaka on the seafront in Makenzie Beach that does this really well (probably because the owner is from Famagusta).

Fish and Chips is always good. A real good hot curry is my favourite, along with the kebabs after a gig.....brilliant!

Don't have takeaway in TRNC much. The Americana Pizzas at Pasta Mania ain't too bad!



In UK I always enjoy good Fish and Chips....not that east to find these days..well, not in Rochdale anyway!



Hollands Puddings Chips n Peas goes down well....Cyril Smith often ordered double (for his supper at around 10pm) from our local chippy back in the 60's and 70's!

In TRNC you can't beat a Gulen kebab - fresh hot and spicy. Although a doner from Fast Food (with chilli sauce) comes a very close second.



Jimchris09 - I second that but it must be mushy peas. Maybe that's because I'm a Rochdale lad also....and I knew Cyril. My favourite chippy was on the Littleborough road opposite the turn to Hollingworth Lake. Next door was a bread and cake shop which had on its window the immortal slogan .....





...."Say it with bread - give her a good muffin".

msg22........ Battered Cod .. indeed, battered to near extinction, In any case, anyone who likes Fish n Chips knows that Haddock is the fish of choice...





Leave the Cod alone, or loose them altogether..

My hairdresser told me that the Chinese Takeaway 2 doors along from her shop hang the chickens from the washing line to de-frost, I have never stepped foot in there again. I hasten to add this was in the UK not in the TRNC.

Had some chips from the chippy last night, they were delicious.
