Re: Take-aways to avoid...

Kebab/pizza/burger: Pizza time (clayton)
BAD (imo)

And come to think of it most of them on Blackburn road.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
We had a takeaway from Slice from Heaven in Ossy last night and it was very good. The garlic bread was nice and thin with plenty of garlic and we had tuna and mushroom pizza which was excellent. We'll definitely go again.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
Actually, yes, following on from my earlier post about Slice From Heaven - although I'm no longer impressed with the pizzas, the garlic bread was really, really good.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
In Ossy I like Pizza Palace, never had any problems going there. Cuisine World is good in town, their pizzas are fantastic!
I tend to try to stick to what I know. I'm not overly keen on Rinos.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
It is allways a good thing to warn other people, that there is someone out there attempting to sell goods that are not fit for consumption, or overpriced. Being poisoned and paying for the privilage is not a very nice thing to happen. Far better to prepare your own food, and not put your health in the hands of a profiteering poisoner.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
I have just read on the Ev Telegraph site about this scheme for giving takeaways ratings for hygiene or lack of it.
Scores On The Doors
Hyndburn hasn't joined the scheme - perhaps we should ask our councillors why not?

We should do. It's an excellent idea.

Re: Take-aways to avoid...
The State of Califonia - which has an obesity problem even worse than that of Hyndburn - is now considering shutting down and banning takeaways. I believe it was the first state to ban smoking in public places; nearly everyone else has now followed suit.
Imagine the impact, therefore, should the first act of the new Accy and Districts Council be to shut down all junk food outlets within its jurisdiction. It would show imagination - joined up government between a local authority and the NHS for instance - and would give maximum publicity to the area. The immeadiate impact on unemployemnt would be negligable (we all know that most "employees" of junk food shops also sign on) while in the longer term it would result in vast new inward investment into an authority getting its act togeather.

theres quite a few illegals employed in that game so they wont sign on, but never mind after 10 yrs the Lib-Dems will allow them to register.
