Everybody seemed to scatter at lunchtime today, so I thought it was a good opportunity to try Nando's. Open for maybe a month, thia location at the corner of Lake St and Beaubein Ct just east of Michigan Ave. A couple weeks ago I walked past and saw the line streaming out the door; today I was a little earlier and was able to order takeout without a long wait. By the time I left with meal in hand, the line was streaming to the door.
Today's special was two chicken thigh skewers with two sides, I chose garlic bread and their "macho peas" cooked with parsley, mint, and chili. I chose the "hot" level on the "peri-ometer" . While this was plenty hot for me, one day I need to try their hottest "xtra hot"...
The chicken was delicious, skewered with onion and red bell pepper slices, and the chicken was marinated and grilled skin-on. Very tasty and juicy! The garlic bread was likewise excellent, and the macho peas were very tasty too!
I highly recommend Nando's, especially if you enjoy a good kick of spice in your chicken, but they said that the Medium, Lemon & Herb, Mango & Lime, or "Plain... Ish" levels are available too. A little expensive ($17) for lunch, but two skewers is a lot of food, I would have been content with one skewer, and it would have been like $2 less...
Highly recommended!
