Overheard conversations

lol

I heard a coworker say, in regards to that nurse who was quarantined in NJ and is now arguing that she shouldn't need to be quarantined in Maine: "Well, I don't want her to DIE, but I really hope she gets Ebola."

Is this the "bless you" coworker, because saying that to her would have been the perfect response.

No, but Bless You agreed with the one who said it!

I would so try to eat the naan when slapped by it.

I think you should go check it out and report back to the board.

Not if you weren't the first one to get slapped!

You're so right, I should have paid more attention when he said the name of the restaurant and checked it out just for entertainment value.

Ohhh see I thought it was a new naan for each slap...yeah that changes everything.

I hope it's plain naan. Otherwise, it's all fun and games 'til someone gets garlic in their eye.

How does UK Indian food compare to American?

[noodleoo]

OMG this is insane! You should go just to watch. Bucket list!

[cheezer]

I want to go just to say I've been. I hope there's a lot of booze involved.

[SJ]

I cannot stop laughing at the naan slapping.

[LoveTrains]

I have a friend who overheard a bunch of my former colleagues talking smack about another former colleague on the T. His ears perked up when he heard them say where they worked. He was on the red line.

Note: you never know who will overhear!

[UnderProtest]

RockNVoll Dude....is this our evening's activity?

[les]

LOL!

It reminds me of some Japanese game shows I've watched. Such a hilarious, absurd activity.

[jillboston]

now I'm hungry for Indian food.

[hainesherway]

This sounds amazing! You should go!

[Deleted]

I want some samosas! We're going to trivia tonight, but there are no slappings of any type.

Some of it is kind of "meh." Sort of like some American Chinese restaurants, they can have a bastardized versions of some dishes to conform with what they think people want (and, probably to keep their prices down). But I have had some VERY solid Indian food in small-town curry houses, and some of the best I've ever tasted in the bigger cities :-)

We've had indian food in our neighborhood and it's actually quite good. I'd say even better than what I usually have in the US. To be fair though, the indian food I used to get in NYC was at a "hole in the wall" place close to my office. The food I've had in London was from a pretty nice restaurant.

I don't know, I haven't had any yet.  My recollection from 15 years ago is that it's very good, LOL.

I'll say that Sainsbury's chicken tikka samosas from their prepared food counter are very good, and so MM at £2.50 for four.

Mmmm check out Zanya's near Marble Arch.
