Nando's has simply one job which it has been doing to a good standard thus far – filling the nation with delicious peri-peri chicken upon request – but faltered last night despite chicken comprising basically its entire menu. "There are no chickens at your Leicester restaurant. Talk to me about that...??!!!!" an exasperated would-be diner called Declan tweeted at the restaurant. "There is no chicken... I repeat NO Chicken..." someone else in his party added, while another user claimed their colleague was on the verge of breakdown due to the shortage, writing: "I'm still coming to terms with what happen. One colleague is inconsolable. It was the restaurant on Granby Street ???"

I've been to Nandos during a chicken shortage and i can personally tell you this is some serious shit. Like i couldn't have wings, i had to have a burger and i couldn't even double up.
Chaos strikes the earth
oh no
it's like that time a subway branch ran out of bread and everyone was like ??????? how do you run a sandwich shop and not have bread???? and don't tell me 'they do wraps' because when has anyone walked into a subway and said 'yeah I'm gonna go for a wrap' because that's never happened
welp, time to send the CEO to the chopping block. this is unacceptable
This is the worst thing to happen to Europe since Hitler
Oh god, i heard about this. Within minutes there were riots out on the street smashing in restaurant windows and vandilising my neighbour's car with "WHERE IS THE CHICKEN" on it. The nation's falling into chaos, send help immediately
Boo hoo, so they ran out of chicken on one day.
THis is like something outta Boondocks.

Never been to Nandos.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwdjIdMGP-U[/media] reminds me of this
Give refunds to the customers who were there at the time and compensate them with gift certificates. Will cost the company almost nothing in comparison to the rest of their profits and will generate insta-good PR.
Well somebody just had to go and eat every fucking chicken. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO0TJijsbhE[/media]
Is there a crisis relief fund I can donate to? This is tragic.
