 ===== Take-away Food in West Bridgford ===== ===== Take-away Food in West Bridgford =====
 +The problem I have with take away food in West Bridgford is not just with quality, it's mainly quite good, and unlike the restaurants, never awful but the price. I lived briefly in the states and the price from
 +takeaways was gob smacking to a Brit. Meals for a dollar 99c in some cases. The point was with high turnover
 +and low overheads it was cheaper to buy takeways than fresh food. Now I'm not advocating Taco Bell in
 +Bridgford (though if replace McDonalds I would cheer) but how can it be that a meal from a takeway is as 
 +dear as in many Restaurants and more expensive than those in Pubs? This stuff is unlikely to anything other
 +than boil in bag stuff from major catering suppliers.
 +
 +The quality of some popular microwaveable dishes available from Iceland particularly is now as good as that
 +from the takeways.

 +==== Do it yourself takeaways in West Bridgford ====
 +By far the best takeaway option in Bridgford at present is I think [[http://www.cookfood.net/shops/west-bridgford|Cook]]. An excellent range of quality frozen meals at reasonable prices. I do think they
 +have there opening hours wrong though. I'm sure they know their own business best but I would have thought
 +that they need to target those returning from work between 5pm and 8pm who are thinking CBA in regard of
 +dinner. There is nothing else quite like it so they get a category on their own.

 +I haven't tried Pranzo's and I am confused as to what it wants to be. "Italian Food to Go"? "Why not have a
