The Hot Plot Awards and the Hotpot: Nando’s way of celebrating the wonderfully absurd reality that is South Africa.

 

Johannesburg, South Africa (26 June 2023) – Nando’s are at it again… and this time they are handing out awards for the “wonderfully absurd realities in South Africa”.

Mzansi zi👏🏽ya👏🏽kha👏🏽la! South Africa remains unbeaten in the dramatic stakes. It is only June; we have not even reached the third act and yet the drama is already of seismic proportions.

Ladies, gentlemen, and all non-binary bodies in the space, with style and grace, welcome to the sidesplitting South African drama saga. The country that puts the “dramedy” in democracy! We live in a seemingly never-ending drama series where the plot twists are so frequent that the good folk at Nando’s needed to create the Hot Plot Awards.

Seriously, it’s like we’re living in a country where the scriptwriters are on permanent alostro. We need the Hotpot because popcorn just isn’t enough, bantase. This deliciously filling meal-in-one features tender pulled chicken and vegetables cooked in Nando’s unique PERi-PERi recipe. Served with spicy rice or Casa pap and topped with tomato relish, it’s a steal at just 45 bucks.

As the temperatures drop and winter settles in, forget about blankets and abo “hey stranger”! Here’s a spicy life hack to keep you warm while the hot plots unfold: The Hotpot – The Ultimate Winter Warrior from Nando’s.

The Hot Plot Awards and the Hotpot: Nando’s way of celebrating the wonderfully absurd reality that is South Africa. The finalists in the Best Bad Actor in a SA Drama so far this year, include The Inside Men for “The Great Escape”. In the award-winning scene, a prison guard counts out singed notes while an orange-overalled man sneaks past in the background. Hold onto your rice or pap-infused Hotpot as The Buffalo Soldiers charge into the spotlight for “Everything, Undeclared, All at Once”. But wait there’s more…

Sit back, grab your fork, and get ready to savour the flavours of hilarity and deliciousness. Let’s raise a toast to the Hot Plot Awards and the indomitable spirit of South Africa!

Yes, Mzansi ke movie. But seriously, enough drama, can we see some action for a change.
