Traditionally, bunny chow is made with half a loaf of bread, but to make it fancy you can use rolls.

Loaves:  Cut your loaf of bread in half and take out some of the bread from the middle.

Rolls: Cut off the top of your roll and take out some of the bread from the middle.

Add some slap chips to the bottom of your bread loaves / rolls and then add your chicken curry.
