First of all apologies to the purists; the sub-continent of India; and much of Asia, but....
Curry & Chips has to be the perfect East/West culinary marriage. 
Particularly, keeping back two or three chips to mop up the last bit of curry sauce and grains of salt. Obviously salt on curry is an absolute no-no, but it's essential for chips.

There are times when it is exactly the right food. Particularly "Chinese takeaway curry" and chips.
And the same for the doner kebab, the deep fried Mars Bar (allegedly, never tried), the Chicken Parmo (ditto) ...
And they all share one thing in common: you have to be pretty drunk to appreciate them fully!

I've seen "kebab" used to describe both meat on a rotisserie (Schawarma) and little meat patties grilled on a BBQ. Both can be good, when fresh. It's the stuff that has been cooking for hours (i.e. buying a kebab after the pubs' closing time) that you have to avoid.
If you do have an irresistible urge to eat a kebab at those hours, the drink might actually help kill some of the accumulated bacteria in the meat. 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Chips? Like Lays, the crips?
No, you meant French Fries, and those are horrible. Try Belgian, the Dutch way (meaning, with mayo, or kapsalon).
"Chips" is either a thin potato waffle or something inside the PC. And "Fish and Chips" is something, well, blasphemous.
As for your observation on sauces going well with fries.. well, some countries been pairing them for quite a while.

Yes, with mayo.
Kapsalon, that a new one for me. It sounds much better than that poutine thing that came out of Quebec. What a gut-bomb that is.

Quote: Computer Science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. -Edsger W. Dijkstra, computer scientist (11 May 1930-2002)
While many of us may immediately think of the "goto considered harmful" meme hearing his name, his boundary-crossing contributions to the evolution of modern programming as a discipline, and to many key aspects of algorithms, distributed computing, etc. are remarkable.
Happy Birthday, Edsger ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
My favorite story about him is his invention of his shortest-path algorithm in twenty minutes while having coffee with his fiancée ... without paper and pencil.

My Mrs., a teacher, was certified for "Special Education" - is that what you mean?

Current "she" would not approve.

I had come across that quote before. My main takeaway has always been that, yes, if you don't know how to use the tools of your trade, you're going to be a rather poor tradesman indeed.
Which I'm sure isn't what Dijkstra was trying to convey at all.
