The drunks want chicken. S'not Italian.

Basically yeah

It's a quick in-and-out kebab place. You're not necessarily getting a normal meal, youre just popping in for a quick bite of chicken

Cheeky = playfully naughty more or less

I feel like it’s one of those things where as a native speaker you really should be able to understand it but if you’re ESL it’s fucking nightmare zone of slang and strong accents.

I'm American and living in the UK, it's just as hard as if I was ESL
