There are all kinds, in fact they toss in all the seafood they can find into the pot i guess. I did not like it in spain, it was bland and secondly an overpowering taste of saffron. also they undercook the rice, which we may not find right. Compared to that Portugals version in Nandos is far better, it is plain and spicy.Maddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163804773843409980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26293647.post-1154975403797786412006-08-07T11:30:00.000-07:002006-08-07T11:30:00.000-07:00>Pushpa,yes it is indeed very yummy!!>Sumi, the fi...>Pushpa,yes it is indeed very yummy!!<BR/>>Sumi, the first day it came as a total surprise...the next day I did carry my camera to take the snap..the crowd was unbelievable...and I was feeling quite embarrased and on top my husband said a big 'no':( The second day we went prepared, ate very little, the whole day sparing enough space in the stomach for the dinner so that we cd taste every dish!!Boy! it was great!!<BR/>>Maddy,I am very much inclined to try the periperi chicken...as one of the ads there says it is indeed very addictive...and what a treat indeed...I do agree most of the so called Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi restaurants in UK are very poor cousins of the original and Nandos is a great relief!! The Paella rice with chicken and sea food could be made fabulous with a little Indianising I feel, the Spanish preparation was a little bit bland for me...I wouldnt call it great, if that is exactly how it is made back in spain...here again we cant take the rest.taste to be std...who knows back in Spain how they really make it...I have stumbled upon a recipe which is described authentic by the author...shall try soon!!<BR/>You wouldnt believe it maddy, the first day we were really like mad dogs!! We did not know what to eat and what to skip!!But still managed to fill to the fullest capacity of our stomach!!...The second day we were better armed with a relatively emptier stomach...I feel guilty to say that it was a criminal waste of food...where many things we had to leave with just a bite for we wanted to try everything...and it was nearly 90% coverage!!But not even a single dish tasted bad!! We hope to plunder it more!!indianadochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11309408721800142368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26293647.post-1154962618071869092006-08-07T07:56:00.000-07:002006-08-07T07:56:00.000-07:00one of the rare finds in this country is Nandos......one of the rare finds in this country is Nandos...after all those bangla indian curry houses with the 4 standard masala's..we go to the bull ring nandos and chomp on the chicken wings.. <BR/><BR/>But when we tried nandos at home, it did not come close to the stuff from the restaurant. The Paella like rice is fablous, whatdya think?<BR/><BR/>did you try each of those 42 chinese dishes? man! were u hungry!!!Maddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163804773843409980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26293647.post-1154955538925395872006-08-07T05:58:00.000-07:002006-08-07T05:58:00.000-07:00Oh Shynee so much food!It would have been nice if ...Oh Shynee so much food!It would have been nice if you had taken few pics.but personally I feel very awkward and conscious in a restaurant to click photos!!!everyone around wonders whats wrong with me!Anyway you guys eat well and be happy:)Sumithahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04536031888092649009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26293647.post-1154942665033252862006-08-07T02:24:00.000-07:002006-08-07T02:24:00.000-07:00WOW!!!!!
