Here's a few though be aware that they're a tad up-market (the cheapest places don't do the whole online ordering thing), specific contents vary by price/size/quality of takeaway. You also get Chinese munchie boxes like in OP's pic and a few places do fried breakfast ones though I've not yet those.
>that mysterious sweet fruit dipping sauce?
Normally you'll get two sauces, a red chili sauce and an orange yogurty sauce, the second one is generally just called pakora sauce which is I think the one you're talking about.

Also sizes are generally 8'', 10'', 12'' or 16''. 8'' would be enough for a meal, 10'' a struggle for most sober men, 12'' enough for a drunk with leftovers for breakfast and 16'' to share.

Oh yes it is you stupid cunt, and get this - Shire isn't pronounced 'Shyre'. It's 'Sher'.
York-Sher
Lester-Sher
Wooster-Sher
NOT
'Yorke Shyre', 'Leisester Shyre' or 'Worsester Shyre'.
Fuck you.

Don't blame me: it's the same school of thought that insists that the name 'Cholmondeley' is pronounced 'Chumley'.
British English pronunciation is funny like that.
