PLACE: Table 29- I live in Greenwich and that means have the privilege of calling my local Do's "the flagship"- the one by Cutty Sark. This Nando's couldn't be further from that utopia. It is situated amongst cold, flat industrial estates in the middle of an Odeon car park. I've heard people crying "you've been to so many Nando's on your challenge, why haven't you been to the other Greenwich one yet?" The reason is that after eating there once in mid-2011, I never again desired to sit in a tiny unit with fluorescent lighting surrounded by teens. I also had my first @NandosChallenge argument. After we ate, I showed El some of my amazing new friends on Instagram @Yasha_123 @_xxrp @mollowen, she got angry up "why do you only show me pretty ones? Are you trying to make me jealous?" Before I had a chance to say "no" she stormed out and stood at the bus stop. I checked CityMapper and there wasn't a bus for 17 minutes so I just stayed in the warm, got another refill and waved at her through the window- 1/10

HOST: Brendan. Being a Sunday, I deduced that he was a student working part-time. He was pleasant but he clearly didn't see himself building a future career in chicken services. It's a shame. He had the potential to become an excellent cashier- 6/10

FOOD: "Let's see how it tastes" I wrote on the FB page. Well the answer was- cold, like the industrial estate I was eating in. It was handsome to look at but the pitta was stale and the chicken felt… old. After consuming 95% of my bird, El looked at me and said the words nobody eating chicken wants to hear- "does yours taste eggy?". Then I tasted it. Eggy chicken. Great. That night I had to share a bed with a human jacuzzi that occasionally smelt of eggs and didn't want to talk to me because my followers are pretty. I knew this ‘Do’s had bad energy- DQ
