1/4 Chicken with Rice at Extra Hot Peri-Peri level
I ate this today at the recently-opened Nando's at Gurney Plaza. The place was crawling with people since the new wing of Gurney Plaza had opened just last week. The chicken was tender and not overdone on the grill. However, it still did not meet my Extra Hot level expectation... when Nando's first opened, the Extra Hot Peri Peri was mindblowing, but these days it has calmed down to a tamer level. The rice was excellent as usual, I've always loved the Mediterranean rice with the onions, peas and carrots in it.
Pros :
- No complains on the food.
- The ambience was good, we had a good view of Gurney Place due to the wall-to-floor glass walls.
Cons :
- No plain/warm water provided, I would expect a restaurant of Nando's level to be able to provide its guests with some drinking water, it was not provided despite 3 separate requests for warm water (we brought our 78-year-old aunt out for lunch). A BIG con in my view.
- Service was poor, could be due to the branch being new and all.
Conclusion : All in all, I'd recommend to give this restaurant a miss until they get all their operations and customer service in order.
