Nando's launches menu celebrating boy band's new movie

August 30, 2013

Nando's Peri-Peri is serving special One Direction menus at seven U.S. locations starting tomorrow to honor the boy band's new movie, "This is Us."

The 1D meals include The Harry, a chicken-breast wrap basted with mango-lime PERi-PERi sauce and topped with pineapple; and The Louis, a half-chicken basted with medium PERi-PERi sauce and a side of garlic-buttered, red-skin mashed potatoes. The dishes mirror the meals One Direction ordered before a sold-out concert in April in England, as chronicled by the Daily Mirror.

Members of the group — Harry, Liam, Louis, Niall and Zayn — frequently profess their love of Nando's during 1D concerts, and the Afro-Portuguese restaurant has become a favorite with their millions of fans, known as Directioners, according to a company press release.

The One Direction menus will be available for a limited time only at seven Nando's in close proximity to local movie theaters. They include the Nando's in Chinatown in Washington, D.C.; five locations in Maryland including Silver Spring, Gaithersburg, Bethesda, Annapolis and Arundel Mills; and the Nando's in Woodbridge, Va.
