What your Nando’s order says about you in a relationship – Birmingham edition

They say you are what you eat, but have you ever considered that your Nando’s order might reveal your dating habits too? From the Bullring to Broad Street, Birmingham is full of different personalities—just like a Nando’s menu. Whether you’re a planner, a risk-taker, or someone who prefers to keep things simple, your order could reflect how you navigate love and connection. From communication habits to love languages, let’s see what your choice reveals about you.

Fino Pitta:

From the outside, you seem like the full package. You have everything someone would want in a partner from emotional availability to honesty, and respect.

You’re probably well-liked by your partner’s friends. However, you have your imperfections. Communication isn’t your strong suit. You accidentally leave your partner on “read” for long periods of time and try to overcompensate with forehead kisses. (I am still salty they took this off the menu for so long).

Love Language: Physical Touch.

Deconstructed Chicken Burger:

A deconstructed burger is when someone orders items like garlic bread, chicken, and halloumi to create their own burger (even though they could literally order one off the menu, but okay).

You’re a builder. You don’t mind putting in more effort than others to get what you want, and waiting for what you deserve, and in return you are showered with similar actions from your partner. However, your perfectionism can quickly become an ick for love interests. Take a deep breath. It is okay if everything doesn’t plan out the way you want it to. (You definitely have tears in your eyes whenever your burger falls apart).

We listen and we don’t judge cannot be applied to this meal.  I’m sorry I don’t make the rules.

Adventurous, unique, and brave are three words people would use to describe you- well, at least I would. You don’t care when others judge you, you encourage others to do what makes them happy, and you love it when your partner reciprocates this. On the other hand, you prefer to be with someone as courageous as you. Your boldness can put off those who are extremely introverted and prefer someone more quiet.

Wing Roulette:

You like a little bit of everything. You want to try new things with your significant other- go to that new arcade, bake a cake together, and finally attend that society meeting you have been putting off for months. However, it is important to remember that not everything is a competition. You have a desire to outperform your partner when you spend time together. This can make them feel like they aren’t good enough to be with you.

Lastly, share those chicken wings. 10 wings in one go? Take it easy and slow down please.

Love Language: Quality Time.

Grilled Chicken Wrap:

You like the easy route when it comes to love. You’re very reliable and you are always there for your partner. On the other hand, you can slack off and fail in prioritising their special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries, which makes your partner feel unimportant. 

You probably respond with “k” a lot whenever you are texting them. Personally, I wouldn’t have that.

Love Language: Physical Touch.

Beanie Burger:

You deeply care about your partner and love being around them. You tend to stick to what you know. Cautiously, you will try new things but only if your partner is by your side- there is nothing wrong with moral support. In contrast, your partner won’t always be there to guide you, so you should branch out.

Love Language: Quality Time.

Half Chicken:

You are straightforward and somewhat emotionally available. Whenever your partner can’t finish their meal, you have eaten it before they can even offer you the rest. Your caring personality but impulsive actions makes communication difficult at times, so you usually do what you think is best for your partner, instead of asking them directly. Coincidentally, sometimes they do similar things. Sounds like two macho peas in a pod if you ask me.

Spicy Rice Bowl

You prioritise your other half’s health and well-being because you want to spend as time with them as possible. Those run clubs won’t attend themselves! However, you care about your appearance and how you are perceived too much. Sadly, this bleeds into your relationship. You frequently require assurance which your partner finds exhausting sometimes. I strongly suggest you love yourself before you love someone else.

Nandinos Kids Meal:

You absolutely adore shortcuts. Forget gifts and holidays, offers, discounts,  and free items make you happier. Your significant other admires your ability to make the most out of everything, like money and time. Unfortunately, this includes food and you take shortcuts when it comes to your relationship too (I know that kids meal doesn’t fill you up.)
