Nando's Chicken

While researching for places to eat in Vancouver, I ran across this little fast food eatery, Nando's Chicken. I absolutely loved their website and thought we had to check it out when we are out there.

The story about Nando's started with the chili pepper, peri peri. They do chicken, as the name implies, and chicken only. Everything is flame-broiled. For people who are spice-challenged like me, Nando's has a mild lemon herb option.

It's supposely a "fast food" chain, but it's not like anything you expect. It's more of a casual eatery with a modern decor, clean and un-fussy.

We got a Variety Platter for two to share, which comes with two chicken skewers, four wings, two drumsticks and two breast pieces. Jose got the medium peri sauce on the side. The skewers, assuming it's breast meat, were juicy and tender. It's no ground-breaking food. But for chicken, they did pretty well for themselves. The wings and the breast pieces were nicely seasoned and never dry. There was a good deal of finger licking afterwards...
