A customer who ordered a mild curry from a local Indian restaurant was horrified to open the takeaway to find the receipt marked "WHITE PPL".
― Hector Ringtone (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 September 2015 14:32 (ten years ago)
may my thread titles continue to be refashioned on receipts
― nakhchivan, Thursday, 24 September 2015 14:36 (ten years ago)
xp I realise this doesn't strictly fit the thread topic but it does hinge on the phrase "white ppl" making this the best place for it
― Hector Ringtone (DJ Mencap), Thursday, 24 September 2015 14:38 (ten years ago)
the excuse from the restaurant is the real value here, though appreciate the woundedness of the response in denial of the evident fact that they get enough complaints from mouthbreathers like him and that the policy is for their general benefit
― nakhchivan, Thursday, 24 September 2015 14:39 (ten years ago)
the absolute gall of a curry joint which serves venison calling out 'white ppl'

im glad they included a stock photo of curry as a frame of reference so that i might better relive the humiliation this poor man had to endure

In future they should refer to milk by its proper Hindi name and shout "WHITE DOODH" whenever a mild curry is ordered.

I have actually eaten a venison curry in Mumbai so Imago may be taking an uncharacteristically arbitrary ideological position here.

here in lowly SE7 there are a hundred curry houses and not one peddles deer, perhaps it's a case of a universal class schema

no way that dude is totally the unleashed id of like every white nyer who has lived in ny for longer than a year. after a year you become a native and then every future white person is ruining the "true" ny that you fell in love w/ and turning it into a gentrified sanitized disneyworld. xxp
― Mordy, Thursday, 24 September 2015 14:58 (ten years ago)
I feel impelled to point out that deer do exist and are hunted and eaten all over the world and that SE London curry houses tend to pander to white ppl tastes more than those in Southall.

(FWIW you should totally go to Babur in Honor Oak Park and eat the buffalo masala which isn't remotely authentic but is also delicious).

just a cursory search finds nothing in se7 though there is the Yak and Yeti in Eltham (which makes charlton look positively irreal) who serve several venison dishes
― nakhchivan, Thursday, 24 September 2015 15:06 (ten years ago)

The original Yak & Yeti was in either Bromley or Crystal Palace I think so the very presence of one is a sign of decreasing realness. Heard amazing things about their food though.

just remember, every ethnic restaurant has its own separate menu full of exotic ethnic delights that you can get access to if you bribe or threaten them enough, it's an open secret that every ethnically english high-end establishment will serve tinned blood pudding with instant custard on the down low

i suppose i conflated venison's historic station as meal of the british upper orders or the poacher with el venado or हिरन का मांस, everyday dishes of the hardworking artisan
yak & yeti doesn't appear on my Just Eat search - but the bus to my cricket club goes past it so i am aware of its location. it's no backstreets dive

Stroller rage guy tells his story. There are some quotes in there that would make for easy snark points, but overall I feel the guy a little more after reading this. And that's a legit gash the stroller gave him on his leg.
