I have been in Johannesburg for 3 days and I am proud to say I’ve eaten at Nando’s 4 times.

I will not be taking questions at this time.

As a former Portlandian myself, allow me to say It's nice to be on the other side of the planet today.

Just 4? I'd be having PERi-PERi for breakfast

bravobarnacle.bsky.social•33 days ago

Nandos rn would heal me.

meretrixv.bsky.social•34 days ago

No, no, this is absolutely correct. Carry on.

There was a nandos opposite my university when I was a student. Student loan + Nandos 3-4 times a week = Weight gain 😬

Damn good chicken though 😋

Once, in San Diego, I spent three days where every meal I ate was in Carl’s Jr. Nando’s is better.

yusufk.co.za•34 days ago

Nothing wrong with a little chisa nyama for breakfast either...

Chicken and pap hot pop for R55! Perinaise sauce 🤤

Huh I thought Nando's are mainly a UK chain.

antaoalmada.bsky.social•34 days ago

It was founded by a Portuguese immigrant in South Africa. It's a mix of Portuguese and Mozambique cuisine. https://www.nandos.co.uk/about-us/food

Yes SA fully claims Nando’s!

jenniferopal.co•34 days ago

And that’s all we needed to hear. Nando’s is ✨TOP TIER✨!

wsilveiranz.bsky.social•34 days ago

Auckland have a strong Nando's game! Just saying... 😉

okuhlen.bsky.social•34 days ago

Sooo cool!!! Happy to hear you enjoyed some famous South African foods from SA restaurants. Enjoy Joburg… make a pit stop in Cape Town too!

Nando’s sustained me during a two-week trip back in 2000. I came back to the states trying to figure out what it took to franchise here.

I was literally starting grad school lol!

larrycl.bsky.social•34 days ago

Cheeky Nando’s with the lads…. Brilliant!

And Steers

Oh my god the braai salt Steers puts on their chips got me through the 90s

tashjoeza.bsky.social•33 days ago

Bad news, Steers chips have taken a nosedive in quality. My salt levels are relieved but my heart is sore.

scott.hanselman.com•32 days ago

I’ve noticed the change!

tashjoeza.bsky.social•32 days ago

Ah well, nothing gold can stay, etc. And at least you have Nandos!

That's a peri peri good track record.

simoneb.bsky.social•34 days ago

but i need to know if it was good

scott.hanselman.com•34 days ago

It was, and is, always good

As a Nandos-addicted Saffa in Seattle, the solution is a two-parter:
1. Get a NEXUS pass
2. Make regular trips to Canada for Nandos (and sanity). The one in Whiterock, 10 mins from the border, is excellent.

You’re welcome.
