There is a restaurant not to far from our lab that serves cheap curry that's pretty good. It's called Shaan Curry House (1489 Merivale Road, 228-9759). We love them, and we think they love-hate us. We make large orders. The largest to date occurred on October 5, 2005, and had 30 individual orders. To put this in perspective, the dining area in Shaan Curry House is maybe the size of a master bedroom in a house. </p> <p> A curry is seven dollars but we charge eight for the order. The surplus dollar goes to our charity fund, the receipient of which changes every three or four months. The profits from our curry orders and our chocolate drive often reaches several hundred dollars by the time comes to switch charities.</p> <p>Because the people in our lab rarely if ever have exact change for orders we've come up with a way by which we don't need to worry about paying for curry on a weekly basis. Our solution is to offer curry cash. This cash comes in the form of a poker chip emblazened with "UI" that may be exchanged for one curry. The cost, of course, is eight dollars. This allows people to pay for weeks worth of food up front and also creates a twisted little economey where favours are traded for poker chips.</p> <p>For a time we tried tracking our orders but we enevitably fell behind. Some subset of our history can be found <a href="curries.png">here</a>. </p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </body> </html>
