Fridays are when I order takeout. I'm stuck between ordering Chinese food or from a diner.

The diner has milkshakes and the food looks good, but I never ate there before and it's pretty pricey. It's all burgers and deep-fried food, too, so it's going to be more unhealthy than the Chinese food.
The Chinese restaurant I order from is cheap and tastes okay, but I've had Chinese food every Friday for the past 2-3 weeks. Plus the Chinese place doesn't have any desserts.

Pick one for me.
 
Okay that's three people saying the diner. Thank you.
Diner my dude, or may I suggest a fucking Filthy greasy arter clogging Donner Kebab on Nan with Chilli an Mayo, no salad and a portion of Salt an Peper chips....
I tried looking for a good kebab place nearby; no dice. Closest was a greek place but it was kinda shit.
Get a cheeseburger.
Ok thanks. Cheeseburger photo looked really good on menu
diner 🍔 just order Chinese if the diner doesn't turn out okay, or find new places to order from?
Yeah Chinese will be my back up plan. I've ordered from other places but the Chinese place was the best bang for your buck.

Ah that sucks, I always find the best Kebab shops are the ones that look the worst on the outside but the foods fucking incredible for what it is - Place I used to buy from where dodgy as fuck from the outside as only one of the shutters was ever open but legitimately had a full 5* review from Trading Standards, and the blokes who ran it where great made sure the street outside was clean, never fucked around with orders, If you where a regular they'd often just kinda give you half your order for free or a way bigger portion than normal.
 
Try the diner. Chinese food (especially westernized Chinese food) tastes great but you’re delusional if you think it’s healthy. At least with the diner you can try something new
