Spicy rice and chips

Bicycle, from work.

Just trying to justify the cost of buying a new one.

That's lovely and all, but it's? not really an alternative doesn't do anything as quickly, cheaply and conveniently as Nando's.
I'd also much rather a good pub, but if I'm eating at Nando's chances are that I have less time, am spending less, and am probably nowhere near a "good pub". I'm still struggling to see a clear argument for an alternative.

Hi again.
A pot noodle is cheaper, quicker & arguably more convenient than Nandos. Especially if you arrange a pot noodle evening at your friends.

For future reference, if you need to try that hard to be funny, there's a good chance that it's probably not funny.

Well you certainly taught me a lesson.
Now off you go to your crappy restaurant to pay to eat st food served by snotty teenagers who really couldn't give a toss if you enjoy yourself or not & have probably gobbed on your nachos & cheese.

Just spotted this. Stinks of snobbery, and still not that funny.

My local Nandos serves take away which can be ordered online using Paypal and is ready within twenty minutes. Ideal for a few clicks of the phone while sitting on the train.

"Your order will be ready for collection soon. We'll see you at 20:15."

Yep, that'll do.

(Sunset burger and three wings)

[tomtom]

Butterfly burger medium
Chips
Garlic bread
Coke

Extra hot sauce for the chips. Take the top off the burger, take one breast out. Use half garlic bread and top of burger to make new burger from spare breast. Use other garlic bread half to complete original burger.

Excellent work, going to steal that

[TIGA84]

Boneless Thighs Hot
Peri Fries
Macho Peas

That'll do nicely.

Or the £20 platters are great things with the kids for lunch.

I don't understand the snobbery personally and given the fact that there are 339 of them in the UK it seems like they are doing something right.

It's cheap, quick, and tasty - and reasonably healthy. A million times better than the ste served up by Maccys et al.

Xtra hot chicken wings with a side of chicken livers is a great snack.

[skinnyman]

Medium half chicken
Chips
Garlic bread

Love the pretentious knob brigade on here. It's a chicken based meal for £10, quit your moaning.

Not pretentious, I just don't like twice cooked chicken.

Only twice?

According to Gordon Ramsay, in many nicer places soup du jour is often the soup du month...

i know for a fact it arrives fresh into the nandos. i understand they cook it then finish off on a grill at the restaurant, i see no difference to other restaurant methods, besides michelin starred ones, a lot is cooked and finished off.

i guess if they called it Sous-vide and called it craft made you would probably buy it.

Their chips are inconsistent and disappointingly uncrispy more often than not.


Not really acceptable in a place like that.

1 thousand times better than Frankie and Benny's or Pizza hut for similar money at the cinema complex.

[ambuletz]

to me I've always found that the chips you get in F&B/garfunkels have the same taste and texture as those from BK.

[truck71]

Feckin hideous place full of poorly mannered people, no table service and gruesome food. As others have said if you want junk go to a junk outlet at junk prices. The one blot on the landscape of the local high Road.

Was just in there with the kids yesterday. The kids like it but I can take it or leave it. Think it's overpriced and the food whilst tasty enough is nothing special.

We'd been waiting half an hour for our food yesterday when a member of staff sidled up and said the grill had broken so no crispy skin on no.1 son's chicken. He was given the choice of accepting the non-crispy effort they'd managed to create or I'm not sure what else.

We were actually sat quite near to the grill, so when the food finally arrived we were entertained by the staffs' efforts to relight it which consisted of crowding around and taking turns to hold the ignition button down for minutes at a time ... click, click, click, click, click, etc.
