Nandos is Portugese, Chiquita is a Mexican chain so is Taco Bell, though I haven't seen one in the UK since the Leicester Square 'restaurant' closed in the mid 90's

Honest Taco bell isn't that great. We used to have ChiChi's and that was sort of Mexican Fast food. That almost came close the the US ChiChi's.
Back home in the US, most of the times that I ate at a Taco Bell I had stomach upset. The food honestly is not that great. Much better doing your own. Burritos aren't that difficult. Just get a can of chili beans from any of the main grocery stores, heat in a sauce pan mashing them slightly.If you have a bit of bacon dripping add this to the beans as it really improves the flavour. Spread on some warmed flour shells and Sprinkle with some sharp cheddar and a bit of sour cream and salsa. Now enjoy. If you keep the ingredients in your cupboard then it will be quicker than getting up and going out for fast food. Another quick nice recipe is Breakfast Burritos... Same stuff only add a scrambled egg or two. Nice for a quick Brunch dish.
