Don’t they front a huge crystal meth distribution network?

Meanwhile 100 jobs are lost in an Irish poultry plant. Now there’s irony!

That’s Los Pollos Hermanos owned by Gustavo Fring. It’s a sister company to Nandos.

Pity it’s so ridiculously expensive!

Gustavo Frings is alive and well and living in Dublin!!!!!

Having lived in London for the last year, I still haven’t tried Nandos…its like a religion over here.

Didn’t enjoy my only visit there and neither did the kids. Over priced but well presented fast food.

100 jobs created in Nandos and 100 jobs lost in an Irish poultry processing plant. Will Nandos be using Irish produced poultry? If not then shame on them. It would be better to buy Irish produced chicken and cook it at home. When eating out go to a restaurant that uses Irish produce. That will keep jobs in Ireland, Nandos could be gone in a few years taking their jobs with them.

Nando’s and KFC in Blanchardstown…. Shopping just dosn’t get better than that. :-):-)

Tis no CrackBird.

Am I the only one who’s feeling hungry now ? ;-)

Chicken Piri Piri = Toilet flushi flushi !!!!

I love Nandos, so wrong but yet so right!!

Love Nandos, having lived in the UK I miss it so much and always try to go when I’m in Dublin.

One of my biggest disappointments was nando’s, we went expecting this great chicken and sides but basically it was a jumped up school canteen, you have to get illicit your own food and condiments and get charged for the pleasure, also the food is pre cooked then literally heated up by the “chef”

Nando’s is South African not Portuguese.

Dylan moran the chef has just announced 60 jobs in his new venture ”fade street social” where’s the news bout that, irish owned irish suppliers

Good news on the jobs pity not better paying jobs. I do take news like this with a pinch of salt excuse the pun. I have seen announcements like this but very few jobs materialised.

I don’t know how people eat all this crap chain restaurant food. If more people could cook proper food at home (and I don’t mean out of a jar), they’d run a mile before eating this rubbish. As for expensive, cook your own piri piri chicken and it’ll cost a €10 for a family. The only restaurant’s worth going to are ones that can cook better than you can yourself.

Is it really job creation when the demand for casual dining in both locations is pretty stagnant? As Nandos expands its highly likely it’s competition will feel more of a pinch and cut jobs and hours as a result. Nando’s hire 100, Eddie Rocket’s, TGI Friday’s and Captain America’s let staff go. It’s a little like the Tesco situation whereas they employ thousands in this country they’ve never really created a job as all they’ve done is displace other (locally owned) businesses.

Most overrated restaurant/diner out there, people in Ireland flock to it cause of the herding affect and get robbed in the process.

Nice bit of advertising for free there. 100 jobs me arse ! This is getting out of hand !

I’ve never been in, even though I really want to try it. I walk past, glance in.. – Sausage-Fest. Table upon tables of groups of men gorging on Piri Piri. I fear if I walk in they’ll all turn & stare like the locals do in the saloon when the Three Amigos walk in.

100 High-tec jabs programming chickens… For dem boys in palo alto

Oh cool! Jobs being created! Now I can finally put my masters degree in civil engineering to good use by serving spicy chicken wraps! …. Or I’ll just leave this kip after Xmas!

I’d love a nandos right now :)

Great news on the job front, pity their food is horrible.

Nandos is a healthier alternative when it comes to fast food- you can make it as hot or as mild as you want. Their frozen yoghurt is yummy:) pity more restaurants like this don’t come to other counties :((((

I heard there is one opening in Dun Laoighre too on the radio this morning….

now bring one to limerick :-)

Small portions and overpriced. Compared to nandos in Oz , it’s like hi burger. Don’t know it? Exactly.

Ronan, this is an island so we will always have to import some goods. Hopefully we can export our goods too. In the meantime I think it makes sense to buy Irish when and where we can. What’s wrong with supporting the local economy?

This is not news.

Ok fair enough, however I just think the expansion jobs for a restaurant chain isn’t a major news story as again most of the jobs will be minimum wage. Point taken though.

Is this important news Journal? The jobs that are to be created will most likely be minimum wage or similar.
