While we may not be hanging around food festivals, hitting up food trucks or munching light, refreshing salads in the park anymore, autumn doesn’t mean the hunt for new flavours, cuisines and food trends has to end – in fact, there’s a whole host of gorgeous takeaway dishes that look destined to high the big time during the final few months of 2016.

It’s said that Americans eat 50 BILLION burgers a year, which would circle the earth 32 times. Hamburgers became popular in 1904 after appearing at the St. Louis World’s fair, and claims of inventing the sumptuous sandwich have been made all over America, from New York City to California.

‘Very satisfied. Quality of food was very good, ‘traditional’ tasting Chinese rather than illuminous sauces all round. Portion sizes excellent, for two we ordered a mixed starter, two mains and a rice and had enough for dinner, shared seconds, and one lunch for the next day. Turned up within 45 mins and we ordered at dinner time on a Sunday. Have tried a few Chinese/Pan-Asian takeaways round Tooting and would say that this is probably the best all-round option if you don’t want to go for one of the high-end/expensive places.’ 

According to science eating hot chilli peppers is addictive as it allows us to court danger without the risk, and gives us a little thrill on the tongue without eating something downright crazy. No wonder there are so many chilli clubs up and down the country, frequented by heat fiends looking to get their next spicy fix.

But even if you’re not an addict, when the summer disappears and the cold days start to set in, there’s nothing quite like a good spicy takeaway to keep the chill at bay. Here are some must trys that need to be at the top of your hitlist.

‘Oh lord did Roosters nail it today. Not only was the food delivered in less than 30 mins, it was piping hot, fresh, crisp and delicious. Yass RPP!!! Yaaaaaaaaaass!!!’

OCome rain or shine, we are always on the hunt across the land for great new restaurants to join our platform. When we find a place that we are certain YOU simply have to try, whether it’s a tip top Chinese takeaway or a spiffing Italian-style pizzeria, we go all out to sign them up.

This month in particular has enjoyed a bumper crop of new hungryhouse restaurants for you to enjoy – here are just a few of our personal highlights!
