Hello, I'd like to know if the phrasal verb TAKE OFF is okay in the following context.
I'm sitting at the table and my host has just given me a huge portion of rice, but I can only manage half of that.
Could I say: 'Oh, that's too much. Could you take some off?'
Feel free to suggest any other alternative should TAKE OFF (or the whole sentence) sound partially or totally wrong.
Thanks in advance
