Atleast howick has a Nandos

I went to KFC howick to buy lunch for my daughter and myself. I did not have my card with me but had a R200 note. The note had a tiny tear on the side of the note and the cashier advised me that they cannot take the note as their safe will not accept it. This is legal tender and the note met all the required standards so I do see how they can refuse it. I then went to KFC in chatterton road while on my way to a client and they accepted my order and rendered excellent service. KFC howick is always substandard either the food is bad or the service. Being 1 of my favorite takeouts it is disappointing.
