Christmas food's just the best, isn't it? Literally, if it was up to us we'd eat a leftover turkey sandwich (or nut roast tbh) every day of the bloomin' year. And now one of our absolute favourite restaurants is spicing up its menu with some festive additions. Yup, say hello to Nando's cluckin' delicious Mzansi Christmas Burger.
Aka EVERYTHING WE'VE EVER DREAMED OF.
The Mzansi Christmas Burger is inspired by traditional Christmas flavours mixed with some South African heat, as you've probably come to expect from Nando's, and will be available in restaurants nationwide from tomorrow (December 1st).
The Mzansi Christmas Burger will be priced at £9.25 on its own, £10.95 with one regular side and £12.65 with two regular sides
WHAT A DAY. Advent calendar chocolate for breakfast, Nando's Christmas burger for lunch, no doubt some form of selection box snack. The festive season's properly upon us, folks.
We're gonna be well lazy and quote the press release thingy here, 'cause they say it better than we ever could.
Basically, 'The Mzansi Christmas Burger combines the classic flavours of a British Christmas with the PERi-PERi fire of the Southern African sun. Inside a Bolo do Caco bun you’ll find a PERi-PERi chicken breast and thigh with a classic cranberry sauce, a rich and creamy mushroom and chestnut pate, crispy onions and a delectable winter slaw.
'The word ‘Mzansi’ is a popular slang word for South Africa in the Xhosa language (one of 11 official languages of South Africa) and PERi-PERi fans in the UK can get their hands on the Mzansi Christmas Burger from this Friday 1st December.
'The Mzansi Christmas Burger will be priced at £9.25 on its own, £10.95 with one regular side and £12.65 with two regular sides.'
Consider us SOLD. What a time to be alive.
Here's what else has been going on this week:
