my Thai red curry is da bomb (at least according to my mates!). I didn't even know about Thai until I moved here, and got really into it, way more refined than Chinese and not permanently damaging your guts as some of the currys out there.
I normally do it with duck breast or fish, although chicken does it too. I used to get the red curry paste from a local Thai restaurant, but they changed managing and the new guys don't want to sell me their paste
Indian is nice, especially in summer with a nice Kingfisher or Cobra, but I had a terrible terrible experience in York with some pickled chillies: they were very yummy and hot, but the day after we all thought someone stuck some hot charcoals in our bumholes overnight..
