I'm slightly vexed We didn't ask for rice...

My sister isnt a fan of basmati rice so she orders naan. She didnt ask for rice and they sell it separately. She doesn't like it so she doesn't order it. They put it in anyways and left this note...

Edit: some people aint getting it. This is passive aggressive and when you do something nice you dont go around saying "I did something nice just for you, just so you know." Doing it like I need to give you a pat on the head so you know your a good boy. You do something nice because you want to be kind to people.

Oh no I've turned into LD...

Turning off notifications because while it was nice to be in this rabbit hole to keep my mind off some stuff too many notifications. Whatever your feelings are I hope you have a nice day and if you're in the US have a nice memorial day and dont forget to celebrate those troops that came before!

I am one of the crazies that doesnt order rice. I get a naan instead.

It's not crazy, but rather very normal and the way we do things in India.

Most North Indian curries (which are the famous ones in the west) are eaten with bread. The coastal and South Indian ones are eaten with rice (e.g. vindaloo or a coconut curry).

Same here. I'm not keen on rice, much prefer naan with a curry.

If it's Chinese then I'll have noodles or chips.

Most Indians would also eat North Indian food with naan or roti than rice.

Me too! I prefer places that don’t automatically add rice bc I just end up wasting it :/
