    Does MFP say one plate or the whole portion that you got? Is the restaurant on MFP the same restaurant you ordered from? Is the chicken breaded and fried or grilled/ sauteed/ boneless skinless? How many vegetables were there? What kind of sauce? Was it cream-based, thick or more like a broth?

    I would say that sounds about right then. Sorry about the interrogation, but I know thai curry can pack in a LOT of calories with the sweetened coconut milk...I don't know that I've every had chinese curry.
