Day 1 with a new team... Give them a chance.
Exactly! It was their first day being opened and if you looked at the staff's name badges, most of them had 'trainee'. The staff were all very pleasant and patient. The majority of customers were excited and delighted with Nando's finally being opened.
I went last night to collect a takeaway. They got my order partly wrong but I don't care, while I was looking forward to the corn cob, the coleslaw was rather nice. I am definitely going back but I will wait until things calm down a bit for them. It's a marvellous addition to Sydenham.
What I did notice, that whole area was buzzing which is unusual for a Wednesday night. The Greyhound was busy with people who couldn't get a table at Nando's or had moved onto the Greyhound for a post Nando's drink. Sainsbury's was busy with people buying cheaper drinks to go with their takeaway. I'm so very pleased that Nando's has proved all the naysayers wrong on it's official opening day. Plus proud that the Sydenham community went out en masse to support it's opening.
