Peri peri chicken giant Nando’s looks set to open its latest restaurant here at Forestside Shopping Centre in south Belfast, it can be revealed.

The South African-owned firm will take one of the newly-constructed units at the centre, just off the Saintfield Road, according to new plans.

“We can’t wait to be giving customers the unique Nando’s experience and serving our delicious flame-grilled peri-peri.”
