There's something about the New Year that fills the sky with luck!

Some say luck is hard work in disguise, others believe luck is nestled in green clovers. It may come as a surprise to you that hungryhouse believes luck is in the food! Eat your fair share of luck with these New Year traditions.

Sometimes the best things are right under your nose, you just need a little nudge to find them. This is how our Review of the Week winner, John, discovered Sukaria - a local Chinese takeaway in his neighbourhood.

Not only did John easily order online using a special offer, but he managed to please the whole family with his takeaway selection. He also scored points when the takeaway arrived just in time for the finals of Strictly Come Dancing.

With a happy family, satisfied appetite and £25 from hungryhouse - John ends 2011 right.

Closing time at a restaurant can mean a number of things for the quality of your takeaway. Especially on a Sunday night when productivity seems to shut down a bit early - we all know how that goes.

Michael, our Review of the Week winner was pleasantly surprised by the quality of his last minute order from Kashmiri Spice. Even though he barely made the minimum order value for delivery, he was served a variety of tasty sauces and a fresh salad to accompany his main course.

This review also reminds us why online ordering is just so much better than that 20th century order-by-phone-business!

Michael wins £25 for discovering a takeaway that shines even in the late night hour.

There's something about Christmas time that makes us crave comfort.

Our Review of the Week winner, Hash, was feeling a bit nostalgic after enjoying a meal from Bundu Khan. Was it the season? Or perhaps the inviting smell of a favourite dish done right that had him thinking of home.

Hash attributes the tasty meal to the spice and the style of Bundu Khan's chicken makhani. Even with a less than pipping hot meal which was a tidbit on the oily side, he was delighted by the "best meal in London."

Hash's wins £25 from hungryhouse for painting a picture of memorable nights in India - and leaving a great review.

Converting is not a task for amateurs. Just ask our Review of the Week winner Ms. Pulfer who converted her friend from a chips-only-eater to a Chinese Food Champion!

Ms. Pulfer was delighted by her takeaway experience with China Pearl. She and her friends enjoyed the golden chips, loads of vegetables in the hefty portion of chow mein, and the cheerful delivery driver at the front door.

Ms. Pulfer wins £25 for leaving a review that has a little something for everyone.

Between the time you click your order to life on hungryhouse.co.uk to the moment it arrives on your doorstep, so many things happen! Sauces are sizzling, pans are clanking and mouths are watering.

When a restaurant delivers the same high quality food and service to your doorstep that you receive in the restaurant, magic has occurred from mouse to house. Our Review of the Week winner, Kristin, experienced this magic with an order from Tip Top Thai.

Kristin's Thai takeaway included everything from piping hot curry to reusable microwaveable containers. Takeaway so grand and perfectly packaged begs to be spared for tomorrow's left-overs.

Kristin wins £25 for leaving a helpful review that highlights a restaurant that truly delivers.

Everywhere you look, holiday cheer is dressed up in red and scented with pine needles. Over the years, hungryhouse has discovered that holiday cheer is undeniably more cheerful when accompanied by food.

Takeaway food can sometimes takes a back seat to Grandma's roasted goose (with good reason), but hungryhouse has found a way to incorporate our beloved takeaway rituals with the holiday season.

We have reached the time of year when cold Saturday nights happen ... well ... once a week. With a home-made meal out of the question our Review of the Week winner, tummy grumbling and all, bolted straight to the solution: hungryhouse!

Nicholas had no problem finding Mumbai Express on hungryhouse.co.uk and got straight down to business. A combination of service, quality and value made his experience truly first class. Nothing like tasty curry to warm you up on a cold winter night!

Nicholas wins £25 from hungryhouse for highlighting a restaurant that goes above and beyond.

Not since the birth of Giant Panda Mei Lan in the Atlanta Zoo a year ago has there been a more spectacular delivery! Not even a wrong address (she gave her home address, when she was actually visiting the in-laws) and a category 6 hurricane (okay, we made that part up) could prevent the driver from delivering the still ''hot'' and ''delicious'' order to Lisa's door.

This week's Review of the Week winner receives £25 for reminding us that exceptional food with exceptional customer service is a dish best served hot. Fat Boy Pizza, we salute you!

Auspicious days dot the calendar year round. Mostly in Asia, but we'll let that one slide.

While hungryhouse is busy confirming the meaning of 11-11-11 with our in-house soothsayers, we will take this opportunity to reveal a well kept secret.
