When we got turned away at Nok's Kitchen, we were recommended over here to Street Box. (Just a note…read moreI have noticed is that almost all the restaurants in Stockbridge need reservations as they are all fully packed with no chance of walk-ins). Luckily enough, Street Box offers a back-up alternative even though it is meant to be a take-away spot. Nonetheless, they still offer one communal table with a couple stool at the window still for those who want to dine-in. The menu is extensive with all types of Thai cuisine ranging from curry to rice and noodle dishes. my go-to Thai dish is a Pad See Ew, which was not on the menu but the waiter told me they could make it for me off menu --what a wonderful thing to hear! He was very friendly with our group as well. The only problem was that everyone else in my party got their food except me only to find out that they forgot my order. The waiter did notice right away and assured me it would be out within minutes. Although I was a bit upset, the food made up for it. The off menu Beef Pad See Ew (£8) was very flavorful and delicious. The noodles and vegetables were seasoned very well. The dish did use a thinner, dried rice noodle (used in Pad Thai) instead of a flat, wide rice noodle. They also did not skimp on the spiciness, which I appreciated since Thai food is meant to be spicy. Overall, affordable and delicious Thai food that is great for take-aways. The space had a hipster and eccentric vibe with unique Thailand decors as well. This is a great go-to spot whenever you're craving Thai food.

This quote superbly describes this past week, as I skipped past, smushed my face against the window and all out stalked their website waiting for Ruan Siam's new sister restaurant Street Box to open. Did I learn about this little spot because I was taken aback when Ruan Siam was closed for a week during the launch? Yes. Was a week without thai take away worth it to have this little outpost right around the corner? Heck to the yes. The Lazy Gal default setting is strong in this one. Here's what we know so far: This tiny (and I mean TINY) place is run by the same folks that own Ruan Siam just up the street. They have expanded the menu and offer delivery between 6pm - 10:15pm seven days a week. They have one picnic style table and bench seating to sit in. It's small but they've done a good job with the space. They have quick meal boxes for those looking for great lunch take away in the area and are open in the afternoons. The new menu items like Pad Kee Maow (spicy rice noodle stir fry with Galangal, lemongrass, chilli and mixed vegetable) are deliciously on point. Their curries are still as bad ass as they were when Ruan Siam was dishing them out. I will be here ALL the time. More options for great thai food? Win.

We did try another local place never to return . Whether you call in person or ask for a delivery the service and quality of food is always delicious, freshly made and piping hot. I had Chicken noodle soup yesterday I do not normally have a starter but yesterday felt the need and we had some teeny tiny tasty spring rolls super tasty. Their Chicken Satay on skewers is a favourite of mine served with lovely fresh peppers and onions and a lovely spicy satay sauce and fried rice and plain chow mein not all eaten by I might add. And always delevered or served with complimentry prawn crackers.

Finding a new favourite take-away can be one of life's great joys and Sesame gave me one of those…read morehappy moments. Located by the end of the first exit from the Clyde Tunnel in Whiteinch, Sesame is my go-to source for Chinese food (particularly if I'm feeling lazy or hungover!) It's quite a small unassuming shop, but has plenty of tasty treats to offer. It offers all of the standard options you'd expect from a Chinese take-away and from my experience so far does them all really well. I'm a huge fan of their chicken noodle soup, so deliciously salty and comforting, and the dainty spring rolls, nice and crisp, which both get ordered almost every time. Other regularly ordered items include chicken chow mein or fried rice, orange chicken and shredded chilli beef, all very tasty. Their satay sauce is also particularly good and if you're ordering the full dish you have the choice of the meat on skewers or already in the sauce (my preference is on skewers). Between myself, family and friends I'd say we've been through at least half of the menu by now and haven't had a bad dish yet. You can also order via Just Eat and delivery is available, perfect if you're feeling uber lazy. So if you're out to the West of the West End then I'd recommend giving Sesame a try!

They never seem too busy and our order was delivered within 40 minutes on a Friday night. They have a good selection of sushi and maki which includes a few veggie options and friends who had had the fish say it's good and fresh. Where they really excel is the cooked food, it comes in beautiful dishes, well presented and the udon came with the broth in a separate pot so the noodles didn't go soggy. My favourite dish is Tori Curry also known as chicken katsu curry. It's super tasty and a huge portion. I think I've ordered it three times now.

Edinburgh and 2. A delivery place! I've now ordered twice form here and recieved really good quality meals each time, that were packed carefully (with a fair bit of thought) and arrived quickly. I ordered via a centralised ordering website that has a phone app, not directly, but have spoken to the staff on the phone (they wanted to double check a delivery time) and would say that online ordering ordering is probably the way to go. So, the food. I've ordered a range of sushi - mango maki, tuna maki and salmon maki which arrived in individual boxes each with wasabi and ginger and were really good fresh quality. My chilli tuna salad was a bit hotter than I'd thought it would be but was delicious! Previously I ordered the seabass special, which came with rice and some pretty/tasty garnishes. What really sells me on this place is the miso. You know good miso? Yeah, it's amazing. And this place does good miso that is filled with plenty of nice bits! My go to for when I want sushi, but have no intention of putting on pants.

Were they like the US and have gluten-free options now? Ohhh yes they did, yay! It was great to thaw out inside while the pizza was made -- everything looks new and clean. They also added a free dip sauce (garlic/herb creamy base), which was great as there wasn't a ton of extra pizza sauce -- more bread for dipping :) The menu said that gluten-free pizzas were not to be cut, but mine was. I guess if you're celiac, beware? Gluten intolerant folks shouldn't worry. Bonus: I learned what rashers are (bacon pieces)

As a vegan Papa John's have so many options for topping and with the garlic sauce you dont miss cheese at all! I would love if they were to introduce a vegan cheese someday though! A tip if you're looking for a sweet option is to order the cinnapie without the crumble topping and extra on the other toppings. The crumble is the only thing which prevents it being vegan so now everyone can have a dessert! The staff here are all above expectation. Very friendly, helpful and always wanting to help. Thanks for opening in Paisley Papa John's!!

For around £10 you can have your 16'' pizza and eat it too! They deliver for around £1 if you live close by, and they also do very yummy pakora, burgers, cheese burgers, doner kebabs, onion rings and the usual take away stuff like bottled and canned drinks. Ali himself is always up for a bit of banter while he makes the pizza fresh in front of you. I can honestly say that this is probably the best tasting pizza in Edinburgh. It's really cheesy, and not cheap cheese but mozarella, with a special herb and garlic tomato sauce that to this day I am pretty sure is unrivalled...

Still everywhere deserves a review, especially when it is the best local Chinese takeaway around here! Shanghai Delight serves up hundreds of Chinese takeaways every day and is always mobbed yet the food is always very good. I am not saying it is sit down city centre quality, but very few takeaways are. It is though very good at what it does do. Personal favourites are salt and chilli chips, salt and chilli chicken, chopped ribs in black bean sauce, beef Kung po, beef curry and chicken satay. None of these of course are advised as part of any healthy diet plan that I can imagine and are probably far from authentic. But they do taste very good. If you are up this way and fancy a Chinese feast then you should give this place a try.

Owned by a husband and wife who have lived here for year originally born in Hong Kong, the husband the head in the kitchen you sometimes hear chatting in Cantonese to the rest of his crew he never crosses over. Occasionally the wife is on the desk she very friendly speaks English but only to the punters. A couple times a year they will close for a couple of weeks where there take a holiday a go back to HK to visit family. Ok so the best dishes are Salt and chili chips, Kung Po beef, salt and chili chicken. A wee beef curry never hurts anyone! To be honest of i was ordering Chinese and Shanghai was closed I'd just go without. All or nothing!
