For dinner tonight, we decided on some flame-grilled deliciousness and headed over to Nando's at their Davie Street location. We always love their signature peri peri chicken!

Hubby went with the classic combo: the Two Boneless Thighs served with a side of Spiced Rice and PERI-Fries. Meanwhile, I opted for the Chicken Thigh Skewers, accompanied by sides of Golden Cauliflower and Roasted Brussel Sprouts.

It was a great meal overall, but I have a few notes for my next visit (and for anyone else planning a trip!):
-
Spice Level: I think the sweet spot is definitely the third level of
spice (Medium or Hot, depending on how they name it that day!). Anything
higher is just spicy without enough flavor to truly enjoy the chicken and
the marinade.
- Sides: Next time, I'm going to skip the cauliflower; it was just a little too saucy and rich, and the chicken is definitely the star of the show. The Peri Peri Rice is a must-have, though! It works so perfectly with the chicken and is a great vehicle for the sauce.
A solid dinner date! I'm already looking forward to my next peri peri fix.
