Chinese takeaway

MFP lists a carton of king prawn fried rice as 504 cals, this seems very low!
I'm having a takeaway tonight and can't decide what will be lowest between that, king prawn chow mein or vegetable chow mein? (I'm pescatarian)
Any ideas? Conflicting info on MFP re calories.
Have posted in food and nutrition but got no replies and want to order soon!

I think that would decide on the size of the carton. I would have to go by weight instead of the nebulous determination of "carton." Calorie count has Chicken and King Prawn fried rice, 450 gm at 734 calories (http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-finest-chicken-i72265). I couldn't find King prawn chow main. Shrimp chow mein is 262 per cup (http://www.mydietmealplanner.com/calorie-counter/fish-and-seafood/shrimp/calories-in-shrimp-chow-mein-other-common-types-of-shrimp.html) and prawns are kind of equivalent to shrimp.0

I'm not bothering now. Went for a run and felt totally turned off by MSG laden oil fest! Instead having Mexican rice and a veggie burger!0
