Never been. Am I missing out?

CyberStien OP ,

IMO, no. There are a billion good places to eat while in the UK but I don’t think Nando’s is one of them.

It always struck me as a triumph of hype, rather than the quality of the food.

NuPNuA ,

Nandos used to be good for quick and easy fast food that was satisfyingly spicy to the average persons pallet (personally I find their top level sauce is only warm to me). There’s nothing wrong with that, people like and want fast food when they’re in a rush or on the lash, or the like. These days it’s prices are too high to meet that criteria due to various factors.

I swear the extra flavour in their extra hot sauce makes it less hot than the hot one. Or maybe the extra hot burned my tastebuds to a crisp.

NuPNuA ,

None of their sauces are particularly hot. They only use birds eyes chillis that cap out at about 100k on the scoville scale.

I’ve realised recently that sauce is a general UK crutch. I knew like 5 ketchup kids growing up who ate everything with ketchup. Might be why we’re known as a having bland food because we drown everything in sauce or gravy

Our national dish is literally dried toast with some saucy beans

All food is merely a medium for sauce.

Me when I was told hummus is a condiment

Isn’t toast normally dried?

On a more serious point, beans on toast is not the national dish on any list I’ve seen.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_dish#U

Looking up UK or England gives Chicken Tikka Masala, Fish and Chips or Sunday Roast. Scotland has haggis, Wales has Crawl and NI has Ulster Fry.

Beans on toast is probably less of a “national dish” and more an affordable comfort food. I guess the American equivalent would be biscuits and gravy?

Tweak ,

Pfft, garlic medium sauce FTW.
