Queen's favourite takeaway she'd send footman out to collect

The late Queen, renowned for her exquisite taste in dining, was also known to enjoy the simple pleasure of a takeaway. It has emerged that during her stays at Balmoral, her Scottish haven, she had a penchant for a particular dish and would send a footman to fetch it from Ballater.

A source previously told Fabulous: "She very occasionally treated herself to fish and chips when at Balmoral. A footman is dispatched to get it from the local town of Ballater."

Her Majesty was reported to have savoured a kebab, according to Hello! magazine. Royal reporter Jayne Seymour noted that Krazy Kebabs in Swaffham once received a phone order for Sandringham House, reports the Mirror.

The delivery person recounted to Jayne: "I assumed the food was for a servant. But when I got to the entrance a butler took it and said it was for the Queen. I hope she enjoyed it we are known for the best kebabs in Norfolk."

Prince William, on the other hand, has shown his fondness for Nandos, the popular fast-food franchise. In the BBC documentary 'Football, Prince William and Our Mental Health', which aired in May 2020, he expressed: "Everyone loves a Nando's," and mentioned it had been some time since he last indulged in a burger or pitta.

He humorously remarked: "In fact, the policeman who's on with me again [today], he's the one who gets me the Nando's the whole time. It's his fault."

Back in 2017, Princess Kate divulged her top choice for a takeaway during an appearance on BBC Radio 1 alongside Prince William. Kate said: "Curry, definitely," and went on to explain that she often enjoys it without William, as he's not keen on spicy food.

The Royal pair shared: "It doesn't usually get ordered to the palace, we tend to go and pick it up," and humorously added, "not ourselves!"

In a heart-to-heart with her son Tom Parker Bowles for YOU Magazine, Queen Camilla confessed her preferred takeaway is a quintessentially British dish. She expressed her fondness for "freshly cooked fish and chips, wrapped in paper," and enthused about the irresistible aroma, saying: "That smell. You cannot beat proper fish and chips."

King Charles has also shown a penchant for Italian cuisine, particularly pizza. During a visit to Scotland in November 2019, he was seen chuckling when presented with a Margarita pizza by an admirer in St Boswells.

Chef Erminio Di Meo recounted to the Press Association: "I wanted to give him the pizza as he is such a big part of this country. He was curious, he smiled and I said 'it's a margherita'. I believe the Prince said 'it's my favourite'."
