no balls Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Chiquito's is pants, all ready made, bland and tastless. I've been with friend's kids a couple of times so my evaluation is based in that or Frankie and Benny's. . I'm not sure if go there if it was just adults in the party. I used to like nandos but the last couple of times we've been the chicken has been of a poor quality and seeing as it's a chicken restaurant I thought it a bit of a bad do Quote
DazBob Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I like it. The food is nice. I've heard/read folk comparing it to KFC before. The only thing it has in common is that it's chicken ... but Nando's probably use normal chickens rather than 60ft tall ones. It does, however, seems to be cool to knock Nando's. Quote
Carlos Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 My favourite bit is when you walk in and they ask if you've been to Nando's before? What today? Every fucker has been to Nando's. Quote
barryk32 Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I've been once, dragged by a mate and his mrs as they are the type who mention it at least 3 times a day. I thought it was shit. Quote
Danny G Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 All restaurants should be order, pay, eat, fuck off. Chiquito's food isn't good, least Nandos is cooked to order. Are you sure about that? i thought it was pre cooked and then re heated on the griddle Quote

Carlos Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Are you sure about that? i thought it was pre cooked and then re heated on the griddle Maybe, point being at least it's hot and not cold and shriveled up. Quote
Danny G Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Has anyone ever robbed one of thr sauce bottles from there? Quote
no balls Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I've never been to any nandos You stick with unlimited sausage, hun x Quote
tomski Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 If I wanna go and eat summat and not be out for long nandos is spot on. Foods good and well priced. Chiquitos, I have been twice and the jurys still out. Quote
Sweep Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 It will of course vary from restaurant to restaurant. I've been to Nando's twice in my life, both times to the one in Stevenage, and I've been dissapointed. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't as great as people had made out. Just down the road from it is a Chiquitos and that's been very good the few times I've eaten there. Quote

Pablo Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I go to Nando's in my flip flops, or the clothes I had on the prev night!! Quote
Sweep Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 So are you suggesting I should give Stevenage Nandos a miss on my whistle stop tour? Yes, indeed, I'll take you to Chiquitos instead Quote
Garrp Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 It is what it is Il go during the day midweek when i need something half decent to eat in quick time It beats most places in this scenario Anyone making out its anything more is a plantpot I wouldn't go at night if it was free. Iv never known it where you aren't queuing out the door, especially down here in london. Yes, i sicken myself Quote

Carlos Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 He fucking has been out of Bolton... BL8 is Bury. Quote

You'll get plenty of folk who big it up to be something it isn't. These are the same sort of folk who will see going to Nando's as going out for a posh meal. As long as you see it for what it really is it's fine. I've been to Chiquitos twice. Twice I was underwhelmed. Felt like I was eating '2-for-1' type food. Quote

These are the same sort of folk who will see going to Nando's as going out for a posh meal. One of Mrs CWPs cousins raves onabout Nando's, she talks about it as though it's a two star Michelin restaurant, and she makes a big thing about when her and her scrotey boyfriend go there for a meal 34B at a push.

Pablo Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Im going to tell you all, what i do with my food at Nando's. Half chicken, hot, rice & peri chips. I shred the chicken, mix it with the sides, throw loads of sauce & the mayo......then I inhale the fucker like its a fat chicks greasy drip tray. Quote
frank_spencer Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Got dragged to the nandos in the Trafford Centre by my brother before he moved to Oz it struck me as KFC with plates (sorry spaz nob). Has to be the shittest 'sit down' eatery in the TC. Quote
Not in Crawley Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 I'm going to be a snob and say I'm not a fan of all these chain, shopping centre, cinema based places; actually that's a lie, I don't mind Strada, but there are better independent eats (or even some other chain places) that cost you the same as these over the counter, plastic tasting crap. And they are usually better if you have kids. I'd rather eat at home. And as for folk who eat subways - you really need to give your head a shake, expensive, tastless (or rather oddly sweet) pap.
