Curry in a hurry

Curry in a hurry

When the buffet car on an express train from Edinburgh to London ran out of food, passenger Deke Primo didn't want to go hungry. The passenger called Talking Pages to get phone numbers for curry restaurants in the Peterborough area, where the train was going to stop next. One restaurant agreed to bring some tasty tikkas to Deke and his daughter Jodi. "From then on it was like a military operation," explains Deke. "I had to tell the restaurant the exact time we were going to arrive in Peterborough, the platform number and that we were in Coach H."
When the train rolled into the station, a waiter delivered Deke's supper of two tikka masalas and pilau rice.
