Coming back from the National Gallery of Art with our kids and Grandkids and we specifically stopped at Merrifield to come to Nandos !! We had a whole chicken with brussel sprouts and some fries for the Grandkids. I bought some Hot 🔥 Sauce for some friends at work too. I'd love to see Nandos come to Roanoke, VA where we're from.
