Nando's...prepare to meet your maker cause this little diner is almost too good to be halal!
I've been running back to this place over n over after having discovered it not too long ago. They're chicken is as juicy, tender and flavourful as you'll find in any good Portuguese chicken churrasqueira in the GTA!
If Nando's set a bar, then this place lept 7 feet over it and kept running!
What makes this place really stand up strong with 'the best of' in this category is their peri peri sauce. Behind the scenes is a trainned chef who is actually from Portugal (who woulda thunk it?!?!). The chef makes the peri peri sauce in-house and coming from a hot sauce connoiseur, i'd put that sh!t on everything! It's not too strong n its got just the right flavourful kick to be finger-licking good!
I've tried the chicken kebobs, the chicken (spicy), the chicken sandwhich and each and every side. All of the sides were great, particularly the roasted round potatoes. As for main dishes, the chicken was tender and ever so good but that was no surpise...what shocked me the most was how tasetful and juicy the chicken kebabs were. I've never tried these from a portuguese restaurant before (marinated cubes of chicken breast grilled on a skewer) but they were really good as well. While I even enjoyed the chicken sandwhich, i'd stick with the plate of chicken, rice and potatoes but that's just me.
For Mr. or Mrs. Sauga, this place is damn good and it's at an unbeatable price...the rest is up to you!
PERI PERI!
