My nieces favourite place to eat, there’s very popular here alough I’ve never myself tried one as I eat Peri Peri chicken of the street vendors in Portugal.

Well, I doubt it’s as good as Portuguese street vendor fare, but in USA #47, there are no other options that I know of for that kind of chicken.

We used to get a Nando’s takeaway every couple of weeks to spare us having to cook after work. Their chicken peri peri ranges from ok to decent. It’s fast food, a step up from McMuck but no more. It’s not as good as the local fish n chip shop but probably healthier.

That was until we read about some hygiene problems and stopped going there.

Are you guys seeing these newly-unearthed coffee commercials Jim Henson did? Holy balls.

For me the ceiling on peri peri chicken (and sauces) is ‘meh’. If you stick it in front of me I’ll eat it and be content, but there are so many better ways to sauce and season a bird.

I’ve enjoyed a chicken meal at Nandos, and I assume I had the house sauce.

However, my Nando’s chicken tasted nothing like this lemony douche bouche.

Their house sauce is so good. I buy the hot version by the barrel full.

The Nandos closest to me has been a casualty of covid which sucks. We ate their too often.

:ok_hand:

I honestly can’t believe I’ve never been in a Nando’s :grin: here… When I’m out with the niece nowadays it’s usually Wagamama.

Our favourite mussel bar is shutting down here… Sad.

Yeah I pick up the sauce at the grocery store every once in a while.

My dumbass neighbor has this flag, except with a middle finger with a painted black fingernail.

Think his flag is goth

Super uncomfortable moment last night. It’s Fringe Festival time here, one of the biggest events on the Adelaide calendar (being able to have events thinly veiled brag) and I went to a late night stand up comedy thing. There’s a good looking guy there with a Gronkowski build and he’s with a hot blonde chick. They’re maybe mid to late twenties. The MC is bantering with this guy a bit earlier in the show, talking about what a massive dude he is etc. It’s after midnight and people are a bit drunk, having a good time. The MC comes back to this guy to talk again, indicates this hot blonde next to him and asks if that’s his girlfriend. This guy yells back at top volume…

WELL I HAVEN’T FUCKED HER YET.

Hoooooooo boy.

We need more. Did the girl get pissed? Did they fight? Who got pissed at that comment? Did they all laugh and walk away? Etc.

Room fell quiet and there was a “what the fuck” gasp/murmur from the crowd. The MC called the guy out, I was a bit drunk myself and don’t remember what he said exactly but paraphrasing “it’s 2021, what the fuck was that”. Crowd is unsettled and a bit of an ugly mood in the room so then he asked the girl her name, she said Rachel and he said “can we get a round of applause for Rachel”. So that redirected the energy of the crowd into something a bit positive and lifted the mood and then we continued with the show, which was only another 10 minutes or so. I glanced at the girl a couple mins later and she looked like a thundercloud, obviously. Pretty humiliating. I didn’t follow them afterwards but friends said she ditched him and left.

I’m going to rewatch Mad Men after seeing these.

Thx lol. That was a good ending.

MC handled it well I thought. Round of applause for the girl was a good idea, doubt it made her feel any better but it let the crowd collectively express that that was really uncool, which let everyone move on.

I’m probably not woke enough for 2021, but I think given the setting at late night comedy club, I’m not sure how bad I’m supposed to think this is. To be clear, it’s bad. But is it “If I were his boss and was there, I’d fire him the next day” bad? I’m not sure I’m quite there. I have just thought it was the boyfriend trying to make what he thinks is a witty joke and failing miserably. I’ve seen that a couple of times, and it never goes well. But I guess the context is probably important. Maybe I just had to be there.

If I was the MC I probably would have said “Well you’re not getting anything tonight wee laddy”. Not sure how terribly appropriate that would have been though.
