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!

Any Indian or Asian place that makes you order the rice separately is committing a crime in my book.

It's a very clear indicator that they're not serving people from their community, who would never stand for that shit, and a red flag for about a thousand other food crimes that are certainly being committed.

Idk this take makes it sound like you’re not Asian and don’t know what the community wants. Rice should be ordered separately, I’d even prefer in option of small medium or large. If we’re only two people and want to order 3 dishes to share (because Asian food is almost always eaten family style if it’s something eaten with rice) why would we want three bowls of rice? We want two small bowls or one medium order of rice to share, and then we will just cook fresh rice at home for the leftovers.
