The indian food was good, but they managed to sell me into getting more food than I wanted and I ended up paying 64 bucks ๐ต๐ซ๐ตโ๐ซ. I had leftover curry and rice, so they put it in a takeaway container for me and wrapped it up for leftovers. Since I was planning on being out til about 1, I decided I should stop by home and chuck it in the fridge. But in doing that, I've now missed my movie :/
The movie doesn't start until 8:50, but I'll be about 40 mins late by PT (gotta love when it's only 20 minutes longer walking...). Could take a taxi to the station then I'd make it on time, but I'd already need to get one from the station back home, and dinner was so much more than I anticipated I can't really justify it. I'll watch a movie on my computer instead, but I was wanting to go to a movie mainly to get out for a few hours.
Oof, I do find most Indian is expensive to eat out for one person as the curries are really expensive if you want to try a couple but then one serve is enough for two people. You don't get as many set meals or single-dish meals for dinner unlike Chinese or Southeast Asian places. Bring on more South Indian restaurants with thaalis! That's how Indian curries should be enjoyed imo ๐
