Why is it so popular? What went right?

it's so cheeky lad

Decent quality food, agreeable to everyone using cheap ingredients.

A whole chicken (24hr marinated) 1 large or 2 regular sides and 2 bottomless drinks for £20.

Pretty good deal.

It really depends what you get for how good it will be.

The things like the burgers and wraps are just that, burgers and wraps. You can get something like that anywhere, it's not very stand out. What you want to get is the just the straight up grilled piri piri chicken, a half chicken is usually enough for one person.

I usually go with my spouse and we'll get the whole platter to share with piri piri chips and corn on the cob. We used to get the luso beans and ratatouille as sides but they seem to have stopped doing them which is disappointing since the luso beans were the best side.

Also the cara viva wine is really nice, I'm not usually a wine person and can't drink much but that wine is one I can drink pretty easily.

Its the branding branding and branding plus a clever recipe of chillis, garlic and spices. Also the menu is reasonably simple apealing greatly to fat lazy people that just want substance

I have a friend who travels to dozens of countries every year, and the two restaurants he constantly raves about are Nando's and KFC (only outside the U.S.). I guess he really loves greasy chicken.
>>
>>7706524
> Cheap
All chicken. Only a few options on the menu.

> Manners not required
Eat it when it arrives, use your fingers, whatever.

> Pay for your own shit
No maths involved! No bill splitting!

> You can steal drinks
Water cup please, mate. Lol, totally filling it with fanta, fuck you mate.

Basically, it's for chavs and stupid people. The chicken's fucking bland because the spice overpowers everything and nukes your tastebuds, the chips are awful and expensive, and it's full of loud people.

I'll take a proper restaurant any day. Fuck nandos.

Had it quite a bit when I lived in the UK. I don't know, it was not bad but nothing special, somewhat disappointing considering how hyped it was. Better than the fast food everywhere you see here, I suppose.

nandos is not that greasy

>it's bland because it tastes too strong

not to mention how fucking mild literally ALL the sauces at nandos are. i'm not even an edgy faggot and i get that black forbidding shit every time because it has a lot of flavour and is only just approaching spicy.

>>7706794

i mean, fat people might like nandos, but it's hardly a calorie bomb compared to lots of other fast food options. the simplicity and cheapness mostly makes it easy for families, large groups, teenagers on tentative dates, students and the like. but nandos is probably not anywhere near approaching a malevolent force fuelling the obesity epidemic. grilled chicken, coleslaw, corn on the cob.

using your hands to eat poultry is not bad etiquette

That really depends on what you go for:

I'm guessing most people don't go for a simple side salad over chips, and most people probably take the bottomless fizzy drinks.

Sauce is breddy good, chicken is moist, prices are OK, eat with your hands.

he has neurofibromatosis (type 1 i think) it makes mostly benign tumors grow on your nervous system
>>
>>7707735

until they clarify what 'portion size' means i'm skeptical that their chips are much worse calorie wise. also how the caloric information was calculated.
>>
>>7708990
I assume it's not per 100g. As far as I can remember, Nandos doesn't offer sizes for its chips, so you'd compare KFC's regular ones to theirs.

fucking expensive as shit

get sardis instead m8
>>
>>7709907
Not a fair comparison then. Getting more for your money doesn't make it less healthy, since nothing is stopping you from sharing the fries and getting corn or something for your other side.
>>
I have a bottle of their medium sauce at home, and it's loads hotter than even the one in the black jar at the restaurant. Why is this?
>>
>>7706524
Never heard of it.
