There is always this snake queue outside Nando's that got me rather interested in the food served there so one fine day, even though we were rather hungry, my bf and I decided to joined the brave souls and queued for an hour plus.I ordered a quarter chicken with grilled vegetables and old-styled chips as my sides (mild spicy) while my bf ordered half a chicken with peri chips and rice (lemon and herbs).The beverages looked interesting too so we ordered a coke based caramelized drink.The peri-per
I ordered a quarter chicken with grilled vegetables and old-styled chips as my sides (mild spicy) while my bf ordered half a chicken with peri chips and rice (lemon and herbs).The beverages looked interesting too so we ordered a coke based caramelized drink.
The peri-peri sauces were very interesting but I thought the garlic flavoured one didn't taste any much different from the mild spicy one. Nevertheless, they went well with the chicken which had a unique taste (so that's why people flock there) The chicken meat was tender and juicy with an addictive aroma. The only difference between old-styled and peri chips was that the latter had chili powder which made the chips yummier! The grilled vegetables were rather oily, making it a bad choice.
The drink was rather so-so, tasted almost like normal Coke. The service wasn't really fantastic, having difficulties to get the servers' attention at times. And the spot where we were sitting was rather bad, with the spotlight shining at my bf's face throughout the meal. Overall, it was an ok experience with good food. I'll most probably dine there the next time when there isn't a queue.
