Nando’s Trials | AMERICANS TRY NANDOS CHICKEN | Cheeky or Freaky?
WE TRIED NANDO’S CHICKEN! We decided to put every British person’s favorite chicken place to the test and taste it for ourselves. Americans trying British food seems to be a favorite on the channel, and to be honest, it’s fun to film too!! We popped in to our local Nando’s to see if this place could really live up to the hype! After giving it a go, we can confirm we fully appreciate what cheeky Nando’s is all about!!
The next few episodes will feature some very special guests with lots more fun content in store in the coming weeks, so stick around!
Tell us, what kind of British food/products should we try next? What would you like us to share? What did you think of the video? Leave a comment, like, and subscribe for more!!

Nando’s is Portuguese slash South African fusion restaurant. It was created by two Portuguese men, Fernando and Robert that’s why is called Nando’s because of the founders name also why you see lots of Portuguese named items on the menu. The first restaurant was located in South Africa because the two guys spent time in Africa discovering it’s food. Hope it helps.
My goddaughter was introducing her American fiance to Indian food slowly. After a year she got him to Madras. They visited the USA and he took her to a Chilli thing in Texas boasting how hot it was. She described it as piquant. When they got back to the UK, she ordered him a Phal, nearly killed him.

That’s an excellent point! Indian food here does not mess around!! That level of heat is right up Jordan’s alley. He loves to feel the burn 🔥🔥 I hope your goddaughter got to try other Mexican food while in the states as well! I would never have taken her to a Chili’s (especially in Texas!!😂) Thanks for watching and commenting!

Nandos is not a UK based food establishment but a South African based food establishment franchise originally from the South of Johannesburg in the area of Rosettenville! It was originally called Fernando's!

Now I definitely want to try Nando's!
Next time eat Nandos like a South Africa. It’s all about having a large piece of chicken in your hand with either Peri-peri or Lemon & herb sauce on it. We usually order a quarter chicken each as it is the best value for money. Also some potato wedges with peri- peri salt and perhaps a coleslaw or green salad. Keep it simple and juicy. Ok,ok a wrap will do sometimes but you do not have the sticky fingers to lick afterwards.

We usually go into Nando’s - order a bottle of wine. Starters to share and just kind of chill with mains. Favourite sauce is garlic sauce by far!

You missed out on the vusa sauce! If you like heat it's the hottest thing Nando's do it's probably not as hot as what you've had in the US but that being said get your search engine onto Wiltshire Chilli farm or Dr Burnorium's and make some vids 😁😁
