The extra drop from Nandos! wearable but not spicy colour changing /shifting heat sensitive clothing

As well as food, I go crazy for anything that changes colour, holographic or glows in the dark.

I remember I used to have a t-shirt made of material that glowed in the dark, not the printed glow in the dark.

Then in the 1991s, there was a hypecolor or some brand where the T-shirts changed colour with temperature so if you put your hand on it, there would be a hand print!!

Now Nando's are selling clothing made of thermochromic dye which change as your body temperature rises (and falls) which make them a must have.

So as a Nandos fan, these items are a must for me even though they cost a fortune!!

The collection features socks, t-shirt, long sleeve t-shirt, sweaters and bucket hats.

Each item has 5 different colours according to the level of heat eg plain-ish, lemon & herb, hot etc.

I managed to order a bucket hat and a long sleeve T-shirt on the 1st of Sept which cost me £63.00.

It was safely recieved on 14th of Sept.

As expected, it was what I wanted, the blue colour I got turns white in the heat as demonstrated with a hot hairdryer tip.

Tagine at Maison Souss

Uxbridge Road on Shepherds bush is a haven for food at affordable prices.

There are so much choices that you can find almost anything from Moroccan to whatever you fancy.

On my last visit, I had two lamb burgers for 99p!

This time I came back specifically for the Moroccan tangine which was only 6.50 with bread.

About a year ago it was only 5.

The portion was big and there was a quarter of chicken and to be precise it was the leg part where the meat comes off the bone nicely.

Then there were chunky potatoes, green olives and preserved lemon which all brought the flavours together.

Overall, it was really tasty but the chicken could have been better in the sense that it didn't have much chicken taste so either it had been braised for too long or it wasn't that fresh.

They also have a wide range of bakery and patisserie which would be an afternoon treat.

Nutella Happy Portion Parlour experience

Nutella recently did a ‘Happy Portion Parlour’ a pop-up experience where they demonstrated how you could serve so many amazing sweet treats and breakfast with just one heaped teaspoon 15g of Nutella.
I was so glad I went along to this Nutella themed parlour where the decor what red and white!

Before the experience, you fill in the flowchart which tells the kitchen more about yourself so that the kitchen can personalise the right dessert for you.

Drinks are included as well so I had tea.

I was served pancakes with blueberries, yoghurt and nutella which tasted amazing.

The fluffy pancakes with Greek yoghurt and nutella tasted so nice together and perfectly complimented each other. 

As well as food, I was really impressed they provided selfie lights which can be used for selfies and photos.

The light definitely helped with the photos.

When you leave they give you a nutella spoon but it would be great if they give you a mini tub of nutella so you can experiment on your own recipes.

Location: 59 Greek St, London W1D 3DZ
When: 25th – 27th August 2022.

Mac & Cheese Biscuit and Cajun fries at Popeyes, Romford

I love Popeyes which is obviously famous for its fried chicken and Southern treats like biscuits and shrimp etc.

The first time I had it was in Hong Kong where they had black beans rice and the usual.

Finally, you can now get popeyes in the UK where the first branch opened in Westfield Stratford which resulted in huge queues the first few months it opened.

There is now a branch in Romford next to the newly opened Wendys.

The hype has gone down a bit but still in demand for it to open more branches.

Since I have already tried the chicken, I had the cajun fries again along with the mac and cheese which they don't have in Asia.

The fries taste the same but the looks is different because they use a paper bag in the US and in Asia whereas here it is a card one.

The small tub of mac and cheese tasted how it should and it was really comforting.

It was cheesy and sharp made with proper cheddar cheese and not tasteless mozzarella which some restaurants like to use.

Popeyes Biscuit.

This is an American biscuit which looks like a scone.

To me, it was like an English dumpling baked without gravy.

The texture was crumbly on the outside and a bit soft and dry on the inside.

It was slightly savoury so it would have been nice with some gravy.

At popeyes, you get to have the option of cajun gravy or nutella.
