Barcelo's @ Vivocity

The first flame grilled chicken place to open here instead of Nando’s as most know it, we decided to pay it a visit. The place is as packed as I can ever imagine without a queue system and servers are hardly concerned. It is a casual eatery – take your orders at the counter and wait to be served. Condiments are entirely self service i.e. get them yourself from tables that do not require them, instead of having them available at every table. Even their freeflow drink option has been ceased, who would know even if you went for seconds? And I digress.

1/2 Chicken               $19.50

Fries, Garlic Roll
Green Bean and Sprout, Side Salad

Only chicken at a chicken place of course! The portions were not huge, very manageable for females even for ½ portions. Dry and spice rubbed, the meat was tough at parts and flavour was thankfully revived with a dash of peri peri sauce (all of fire and heat). The sides were hardly inspiring, I enjoyed my garlic roll best though. Green Bean and Sprout was stir fried and resembled a Chinese stir fry. Nando’s is better, The Rotisserie is tons better. There, I already have ready replacement options.
