Curry & Chips?
-
First of all apologies to the purists; the sub-continent of India; and much of Asia, but.... Curry & Chips has to be the perfect East/West culinary marriage. ;P Particularly, keeping back two or three chips to mop up the last bit of curry sauce and grains of salt. Obviously salt on curry is an absolute no-no, but it's essential for chips.

There are times when it is exactly the right food. Particularly "Chinese takeaway curry" and chips. And the same for the doner kebab, the deep fried Mars Bar (allegedly, never tried), the Chicken Parmo (ditto) ... And they all share one thing in common: you have to be pretty drunk to appreciate them fully! :-D

I've seen "kebab" used to describe both meat on a rotisserie (Schawarma) and little meat patties grilled on a BBQ. Both can be good, when fresh. It's the stuff that has been cooking for hours (i.e. buying a kebab after the pubs' closing time) that you have to avoid. If you do have an irresistible urge to eat a kebab at those hours, the drink might actually help kill some of the accumulated bacteria in the meat. :)

Chips? Like Lays, the crips? No, you meant French Fries, and those are horrible. Try Belgian, the Dutch way (meaning, with mayo, or kapsalon). "Chips" is either a thin potato waffle or something inside the PC. And "Fish and Chips" is something, well, blasphemous. As for your observation on sauces going well with fries.. well, some countries been pairing them for quite a while.
