Nando's
Just been to Nando's for the first time with some mates. Is it just me who can see it or is this place a total rip off? They point you to your
seat, the menu's over complicated so I just had whatever someone else was having as I often do, experience new things and all.So I sat waiting
for the waitress. Oh no, you have to go up yourself and pay. Righto then. I'll have a coke too because I'm driving, okay here's a
glass. Eh? Yeah go and fill it yourself. Erm..right. Sit down, where's the knife and fork? Oh, over there, go get it yourself. What! Up and down
like a jack in't box. Then, I get a chicken breast on some fancy bread, chips which I notice they're putting into a McDonalds type
cardboard pocket thing then pouring onto a plate and a corn on't cob and they wanted £9 for that. What a rip off! I've done
everything bar cook the food and it's no different to a McDonalds meal. Rubbish!

But you can have chicken, with a chicken accompaniment and a side dish of chicken. Only KFC offer that and you don't have to eat it out of a
bucket.

Had you not been a clueless noobie, you could have done all that in one trip. I've only ever had the standard BBQ'd chicken - never
tempted by any of the 'dishes' on the menu. Quite tasty, but perhaps a little pricey for what is basically fast food, i suppose, if you
want to be a miserable complaining g*t

I've never tried Nando's here (my wife has one near work and quite likes it) but their advertising is certainly interesting!

They are always very busy when i go past the resteraunt in Croydon and theres no shortage of resteraunts!
I have had Nando's twice and really enjoyed the grub but i steered away from the piri piri sauce!!

The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.
