couldn’t believe her ears after confessed he has never had a ‘cheeky’ Nando’s before.
During Wednesday’s edition of , the 47-year-old presenter was joined by co-host and before they cut to break, Alison teased what the TV chef, 60, would be cooking later in the show.
Although she didn’t reference the South African food chain by name, it was obvious from the viewer’s perspective that Phil’s peri-peri dish held a striking resemblance.
‘It is a family favourite but how do you fancy the taste of a very famous chicken restaurant for half the price? Morning Phil this looks great’ Alison said.
‘Now I have to admit, I’ve never eaten in that restaurant, but this is what I came up with…’ Phil replied.
Alison – who was too stunned to speak – quickly cut him off and retorted: ‘What! Never eaten in that restaurant.’
‘No, but the ingredients are all the same,’ said Phil.
‘You’re missing out babes, you are missing out,’ Alison added.
You tell him, Alison!
Phil’s startling confession sparked a mini frenzy on Twitter as one person wrote: ‘I’ve never had a Nandos either!’
While another joked: ‘Ugh, that feature on This Morning about DIY Nando’s has made me want – nay, NEED – all the actual Nando’s.’
‘Phil’s never had a cheeky nando’s,’ another quipped.
