What is Peri-Peri and whyis it beneficial to your body?Peri-Peri is the Swahili word for the African Bird ’sEye Chilli, a source of pride amongst the southernAfrican cuisine due to its distinct flavour andaddictive heat. Nando’s Peri-Peri isn’t just well-known for its taste, but also its beneficial effects tothe body. For instance, chilli has an incredible lowcalorie count, a virtual lack of fat, a high level ofVitamin C, a tremendous source of Vitamin A, folicacid and potassium, and chilli also acts as aneffective decongestant. Apart from these, Capsaicin,the heat component and also the active ingredientin Peri-Peri, prevents blood clotting and lowers thecholesterol.

The DishesNando’s offers four choices of flavour — lemon and herb for the lessadventurous, mild, hot and extra hot peri-peri for the very brave,who fancy spiciness. Nando’s offers a variety of selections for starters,such as the Peri Soup & Bread All you can eat (RM7.25), Peri Wedges& Dip (RM6.50), Grilled Chicken Sausages (RM9.25), Chicken Wings& Dip (RM8.50) and Port Roll (RM4.50) served in a basket with garlicbutter spread. If you’re sharing with friends or family members, itwould be best to get the Peri Starter Pack (RM13.95) which is servedwith Peri wedges and grilled chicken sausages with Peri dip.
Nando’s cosy and relaxed ambience creates a nice settingregardless whether you are dining with friends, family, lovers or evenbusiness associates. For a family dine-in of four, I would stronglyrecommend the Peri Platter (RM43.80, only RM10.95 per person)which offers one whole chicken with two large bowls of rice,accompanied by large Fresco salad, coleslaw, and chips. It’scost-effective, besides getting a well-balanced meal for you and yourfamily.
Go for the Espetada (RM23.90) if you love the tender textures ofchicken thigh. This mouth-watering dish, made of four pieces of grilledchicken thighs with roasted capsicums served on a skewer, not onlylooks appetising, its tempting aroma would definitely make yourstomach growls! It also comes with full serving of Fresco salad andPeri wedges.
If you prefer individual chicken meals, you may go for the ClassicMeals, where you get to pick any combination of two of yourpreferred sidelines, such as the Fresco Salad, Coleslaw, Old StyleChips, Peri Chips, Mediterranean Rice or Peri Corn. You may opt foreither, the ¼ Chicken with 2 Sidelines (RM12.80), ½ Chicken with 2Sidelines (RM18.80), Grilled Chicken Strips, Rice & Fresco Salad (RM9.75),Tender Chicken Kebab with 2 Sidelines (RM13.90) or ¼ Chicken withRice (RM10.80). For the weight-watchers who are counting theircalories, Chicken Only would be an ideal choice — either the ¼ Chicken(RM8.50), ½ Chicken (RM15.20) or Full Chicken (RM29.90) for sharing.
Else, you may go for Nando’s well-known Chicken Pita with 1Sideline (RM12.90), with all that tasty strips of grilled chicken breastand fresh salad stuffed in a pocket of pita bread with a choice of yourfavourite sideline, or the Grilled Chicken Breast Burger with 1 Sideline(RM12.95) — definitely some yummy munches! Prefer something lighterand tasty, plus lots of fibre? Just go for the fresh salads such as theChicken Caesar Salad (RM11.50) where strips of grilled chicken breastare served over a bed of chopped romaine with crouton, drizzledwith Caesar dressing and parmesan cheese.
Fancy beef over chicken? Nando’s Beef Speciality Meals wouldcertainly suit your palate. Give the Beef Prego Roll (RM23.90) a try,where tender sirloin steaks are cut and served in a roll, topped withtraditional style Prego sauce, accompanied by chips and coleslaw.The tender and juicy texture of the sirloins soaked in Peri-Peri, wouldsurely make you crave for more. What’s more, you can go ‘bottomless’with free refills of all carbonated drinks and Ice Lemon Tea at onlyRM5.25!
