A POPULAR restaurant chain has temporarily closed one of its south Essex branches for a major revamp due to finish in time for Christmas.
Nando's, at Festival Leisure Park, Basildon, closed it's doors to the public on Monday for a "complete store refurbishment," due to reopen on November 28.
When the staple chicken restaurant returns, it will relaunch with a festive menu just in time to welcome visitors back before Christmas.

A spokesperson confirmed: "Yes the store is now closed for five and a half weeks for a complete store refurbishment. This will give a new, updated look to the restaurant.
"When the store reopens this will coincide with the launch of the Nando’s Christmas menu. More details of this will be announced shortly."
The refurbishment comes amid a string of upgrades and overhauls at the leisure park, including a newly opened Wing Stop chicken restaurant, dessert parlour Heavenly Desserts, and a new Wendy's and Costa in the final stretch of development.
For diners in Basildon who can't go without their peri-peri fix, fear not, as two other Nando's restaurants are available in the town at East Square and Mayflower Retail Park respectively.
