I have been a huge fan of Nando's all my life - growing up in Asia, we've had Nando's since God knows when! When one finally opened up in the downtown area, I was so excited to know that it's so close to where I live! ( see the pattern of why I can never escape food?!)
Anyhow, this is probably the best (almost) fast-food Portuguese roasted chicken in town! The chicken is tender, fresh and flavorful. On top of that, there's so many different sauces you can smother your chicken with. My all-time favorite would be the medium and garlic. They're the perfect match to everything!
Now let's get to the sides. Not the biggest fan of the mashed potato or the coleslaw, but the piri-piri fries are to-die for! I also really like the fountain drinks machine - you don't get to try 100 flavors (the drinks are bottomless!) all the time.
I've yet to try any of their desserts - but certainly would love to at some point. Especially the Portuguese egg tarts that just tempt you at the cashier!
