Nando's Peri Peri Restaurant

J read about a new restaurant in the Washington Post that just opened in Dupont [the chain has been around since 1987 in South Africa]. Their flame-grilled chicken + flavours derive from the countries of Mozambique + Portugal. It sounded pretty good so we decided to check out. Pretty inexpensive for the both of us. Our meal came to about 18 bucks including the bottomless frozen yogurt. The chicken portion seemed kind of small at first for each person, but the choices of 2 sides [we got fries + garlic bread] helps you fill up + feel satisfied.

If you're ever in Dupont near 18th St NW + Connecticut Ave NW, you should definitely check it out. They also have another location in Chinatown at 7th + H Sts NW.

F+F, please see All Sizes to best enjoy the view.

Today we hiked Big Tree Trail towards La Mina Falls in El Yunque Rainforest. They claim to have no poisonous snakes lurking in the bushes, but another hiked claimed to have seen a monkey, which scared the bejeezus out of them. Other than that, the hike was nice, peaceful, + moderately easy to walk. The path was even paved with occasional steps for the most part. Afterwards, we visited the top of YokahĂș Tower for awesome panoramic views of the island + even spotted the legendary Chupacabra! In the daylight, no less!
