Once I was in a pizza place in Connecticut. There was this really hot waitress working the pies like no tomorrow. Something about the way she said sausage that made me horny. "Sauseeg". Man did my sauseeg get hard when she talked. We flirted through must of our interactions. At the end of the night I asked her for her number and waht time she got off work. She said she was hanging out late tonight to close up. It was her parents shop. She asked if I wanted to stay and help. I did. We stayed late and we were so attracted to each other that we started going at it right there on the counter. We pushed the Jimmy Fund Donation can aside and layed out some flour on the counter top. We stripped butt naked and I told her to get the meatballs and sauseeg. She proceeded to shove two meatballs inside my rectum. It was hot. I rubbed her all over with capicola and mortadell. I made her my little italian sub and ate the shit out of her.

I can imagine Indian food being to 'Merkins what Mexican food is to Britishers.

isn't there a relatively huge number of indian people in the US though, at least compared to the proportion of mexicans in the UK?
― mark s, Monday, 7 November 2011 10:43 (twelve years ago) link
But curry in the UK is an institution in itself. It may be far removed from "authentic" Indian cooking, but like Italian food in the US, it's found its feet and in many cases is bloody delicious! (like blood sausage)

i eat a lot more indian food than i do italian food so maybe voting indian
it certainly brings back more memories of joyous nights out. but then that is more to do with the beer that's consumed. plus italian food is very tasty and doesn't give me flaming diarrhoea

I voted Indian food. Unless you go somewhere particularly special in the UK, Italian food is basically pizza OR pasta, which is nice enough I guess. I mean, I ADORE pizza, it's amazing, but Indian food is so much more flavoursome and varied when you go to a restaurant, and everyone's got a favourite and you can really tell the difference between restaurants etc.

but surely you can say "Unless you go somewhere particularly special in the UK, Indian food is basically gooey slop with rice OR bread"

I guess it's different in London. We have maybe five Italians and 5 Indian restaurants in our town. The Italian restaurants are mostly chains: Prezzo, Pizza Express, Strada etc. I can't really tell the difference other than minor changes in decor. The Indian restaurants are all independently run, offer very different menus, have their own style in general.
― Glo-Vember (dog latin), Monday, 7 November 2011 11:28 (twelve years ago) link
but even prezzo offers more than just pizzas and pasta...

I'm not slagging off Italian food in the UK - it's nice, I can't fault it - but for me, Indian food is just more interesting.
― Glo-Vember (dog latin), Monday, 7 November 2011 11:37 (twelve years ago) link

Hmm, I have to say almost all Italian Food in England is mediocre, bog standard pasta and sauces you could easily whip up at home. No enough places have a wood-fired oven for pizzas either, so just investing in a pizza stone will allow you to make a better pizza than most places.
― Chewshabadoo, Monday, 7 November 2011 13:03 (twelve years ago) link
i live in the suburbs where good restaurants of any sort are at a premium and there are at least two decent indian restaurants (and a couple of take-out places) within driving distance. and no decent mexican joints. this country's just too big, and the immigrant population so diverse depending on which region you're in, to break it down like that.
― strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Monday, 7 November 2011 14:50 (twelve years ago) link
more variety in Indian food imho (wider geographic area, wider variety of local ingredients, much bigger range of cultural diversity) so I'm goin with that

these are hands-down my two favorite cuisines (and yes i know neither is a monolith) but i feel a bit biased towards italian because i just made a huge batch of marinara sauce yesterday and it is delicious so that

Is indian pizza indian or italian? This is an important question to resolve, because indian pizza is a thing of beauty.

Chinese is at least as well represented in the US as Indian and Italian; do not know about UK.

i once had doner kebab pizza in the south of france -- it was not very amazing except as a concept
many many chinese takeaways in the uk, maybe even more than indian, i don't know (probably varies regionally) -- i remember the first chinese restaurant opening in shrewsbury in the 60s, the chanticleer, it was fancy! it had a dance band and a dance floor -- and my whole family went as a special very unusual treat

I'm part Italian, I can eat Italian any time I want. Yes, it's great. It's really filling though and gets tiresome every day. That is true about the variety in Indian food...and the SPICE. I love SPICY FOOD. So, Indian then....
