Despite being a chain Nando's has certainly got a good thing going on. It's homemade sauces are delicious especially the peri-peri. The chicken is great and you are guaranteed to have a great meal everytime. It is pretty good value for money and not pretentious like so many chains are today. I woul definitely recommend it after a hard day's shopping.

Nandos are famous for their flame grilled chicken and delicious peri peri sauces. And you know a restaurant is good when the tables are always busy. The menu has a range of chicken options - half, quartered, wings, in a bun or pitta bread as well as vegetarian burger options and the usual suspects appear on the sides - coleslaw, salad, rice, corn. Kids meals are also available.

Over the weekend, the service was pretty slow, but hey, it was Saturday lunchtime, so by the time my chicken burger arrived, it didn't hang around on my plate for long. The chicken was tender and tasty, amply drizzled with the wild herb sauce, the corn on the cob, also flame grilled was perfectly sweet and succulent and the garlic bread garlicky. My companion, whose palate is less delicate than mine, was blown away by the extra hot sauce. I love the idea of being able to bring all their gorgeous sauces to the table to sample. However, we didn't have desert as I thought the portions looked a bit on the tiny side and I thought the wine was a bit overpriced, but it's all relative isn't it?
