Default single-main takeaway format

The No.3 sits as the menu-default kraft box across most independent Chinese takeaways — a full-portion chow mein, a noodle main, or a rice-and-curry combo fills the 1900ml capacity without the lid bowing. Operators running typical two-dish orders pack two No.3 boxes per carrier bag with room for a rice tub and prawn crackers alongside. For family bundles where the No.3 runs short, the no.8 large kraft takeaway box steps up.
