Hello Dear Reader,
We debated whether to splash out on a take away tonight! The last one we had was on our wedding anniversary. You know you are a tightwad when a big anniversary splash out is a fish and chip supper!
I succumbed in the end and pushed the boat out with a 'ready meal'. I've spent the day on research (work prep..........nothing you need know about) and after several hours hard at it, I decided on a night off.
So, here's my review of Aldi's Chinese takeaway meal for two for £3.99.
I was really surprised how big the portion was for the price. I know we eat less than most people but it was more than enough for two people. The chicken curry was very mild and had a coconut flavour to the sauce. The sweet and sour chicken was really tangy. All in all, it was expensive but a great deal cheaper than a takeaway. Even fish and chips is too expensive anymore!
If you see this in Aldi and are apprehensive then don't be, although a lot more money than I usually spend we enjoyed the night off. A quick rinse of the plates and then feet up in front of the fire with the dogs before I get back to the research and preparation.
We paid for this and the opinions are my own.
Until tomorrow,
Love Froogs xxxx
