@ doc,
There's actually a Nando's in the Madad area of Mumbai, which opened last year.
Pakistan has a branch in Karachi too.
The menu's basically various levels of spicey chicken served as chicken burgers, or various chicken options wrapped in pita bread, but there's also eg. half or quarter-chicken meals served with chips/potato wedges, coleslaw, unlimited fizzy drink, etc.
The mildest chicken served is the 'Lemon and Herb,' progressing to the 'Nando's Extra Hot'...
There's also various salads and side orders, as well as a basic range of puddings. |

I love my curry, the hotter the better. The hottest i've ever tasted was made using some exotic spice from Morocco. I can't stand that insipid pale yellow concoction which some people call curry, it's nothing more than stew with a touch of tumeric.
I'm not superstitious, merely mildly stitious. |

Mutton curry tends to be a healthier alternative to chicken curry (in reality not in theory) as sheep are raised and fed decently. At least in contrast to our mass produced chicken. |

Wow...too many India related discussions in this thread...
Whats the dish served in Nandos??i think the chicken curry served in restaurents and hotels outside india are of mild form...they r fake curries.true curry are very chilly and served hot...sometimes people even here find it too hot to eat...but they still enjoy.  |

Ok, I'll admitt, I love my curry "fake" but the stuff they've got in Durban is potent.

Well,l can't really tell which one is healthier,chicken curry or mutton curry.This sort of brings one question to my mind,Do you guys believe all the stuff the put on the labels on food packets?I mean,all those scientific names of those nutritional info.

lol, i'm coloured, any curry is good curry :D
As far as the labelling on foodstuff goes, the fresher the better, so we tend to go very easy on the processed stuff. Even drinks like Coca-Cola are a no-no, there's way too much sugar in there. |

LOL Kryptik, I must also be a Philistine in the eyes of the curry purists then... I don't get a kick or have any appreciation for something that causes plumes of smoke to pour out of all my orifices. :-D

My favourite chicken dish is pretty much Uncle Faouzi's, this family take away joint run by these lebanese guys. Family business, open i think 24 hours. Never seen them closed. Got this garlic cheese sauce with it, on a wrap, half a de-boned chicken, and some spicy sauce which i do not add much of. It is situated across from hatfield square, the student hang out spot, between where we travel weekends. Got hubbly bubblys (sheesta) there to smoke as well as tobaccos to buy. One of my favourite places to eat. Our offices moved friday, and this place is very close:)
Sorry i was so quiet. Me and my pal jim had a fun weekend hanging out, and so on. I have been playing on his psp, and i love it! Been playing pirates of the caribbean and tony hawk. What fun! So we were discussing the whole motorolla ipod thing and what might happen in the future of cellular gaming. What you guys think?
We are sitting on the stoep, watching the lightning, wondering if anyone else in the world is doing exactly the same thing... |

On the indian thing, a friend got married yesterday, to an indian girl. I work with him and they are both in the same church as me. So if phones me 11 o clock this morning asking if i wanna come to the wedding, just as we got set up for band practise. A little short notice, so i declined the offer with a resounding 'enjoy tonight!' (and a naughty laugh in there)
