The new Nando’s at Vergelegen Plein Shopping Centre in Somerset West hosted an evening of delicious food and networking on Wednesday 24 July. Owner Julio da Costa welcomed patrons to his seventh Nando’s branch, which opened its doors last month. Da Costa said Nando’s was an integral part of the Helderberg community, and he was proud to open the latest store for their convenience.
