Aburi Restaurants

At about 100 metres east from the ABG Resthouse inside the Botanical Gardens, you will find one of the two restaurants in the park. One is Rose Plot Restaurant that serves cheap, simple food, and the one where I went is called Royal Botanical Gardens Restaurant.

This restaurant is situated wonderfully in the gardens, overlooking the valley below the hill of Aburi. You can sit outside here, in the peaceful garden behind the restaurant. When I was here, I litterly was the only guest in the restaurant, so it is not special that the service was very good: I had my personal waiter all the evening!

The food I had was very, very nice, but it was my third choice. There was no fish available so I had to choose between chicken and beef. I finally chose the grilled chicken in green pepper sauce with potato chips. And I must say: it was fantastic! The chicken was nice and soft and the sauce was creamy and spicy. Before this I also had a cup of chicken soup, and together with two drinks it costed me about $ 10,-.

You do have to mind that the restaurant closes very early: at 7:30!
