Ali Barbour's Cave Restaurant: Beach Cave

by Acirfa

A short walk along the beach from Diani Sea Lodge or make a booking (which is advisable to avoid disappointment) and you will be collected and dropped off.A wonderous experience of dining in a series of naturally formed coral caves, it all begins as you enter via a stair case down into a candle lit cavern.Men are required to wear long trousers, smart dress is required. International quisine and seafood is served.Whilst dining, you can admire the stars through the open roof which is closed during cool weather using an interesting canvas cover.

Forty Thieves Beach Bar and Restaurant: Beach Bar

by Acirfa

Be warned the plates are piled high, pizza, pasta, plus a variety of other dishes. Forty Thieves is a great meeting place, live music each Sunday lunch time, the beach, discos, and sail boats for hire. Not to mention a fantastic location to enjoy a meal against the backdrop of the ocean lapping at the soft white sands of Diani Beach.

Carnivore Restaurant: Amazing culinary experience

by jorgejuansanchez

Carnivore is a culinary experience, worthy of Pantagruel (Fran?ois Rabelais personage), even if you are vegetarian, as I use to be.The waiters come to your table and cut before your eyes the wild game meat with their Maasai swords: giraffe neck, crocodile tail, zebra leg, elephant trunk, impala ribs, ostrich, antelope, crocodile?until you say ?Basta!?, because is an ?eat as much as you like? system.Desserts and coffee are included, and the charcoal grill is at sight. See above

The Carnivore: Lets Cocktail . . .

by filipdebont

As we entered the Carnivore restaurant, we were led to a big table where the whole group could sit (18 persons).Of course we started in style, with a delicious cocktail. I had chosen my favourite one: a Margarita.Everyone found its favourite taste, there was a big range on cocktails like White Mischief, Pina Colada, Bloody Mary, Banana Daiquiri, Strawberry Daiquiri, . . . A kind of Medicine man also passed along our table with a home made cocktail, a so called appetizer, named Dawa.This Dawa was prepared by this Medicine man just in front of you, and was made on a base of Vodka and lime.(You can find the recipe on the restaurants website) Cocktail : Margarita

The Carnivore: A Beast of Feast

by filipdebont

Already as we entered the Carnivore restaurant, we had seen the big grill filled with lots of meat.But after the cocktail we started with the Soup of the day, and it was a light vegetable soup.And then it was time for the battle with the meat.Before my trip, I had read some reports here on Vt on the Carnivore, and I must add something. . Nowadays they do not serve any game anymore, as it no more allowed to kill game (or maybe the rules became more strictly - a good case for the animals of course), like this restaurants like this can not serve wild anymore like they did before.And No, that was not a disappointment for me, as I did not come specially to eat game.But no problem, there was still a lot meat coming to our table - let the feast begin . . . different kinds of meat

The Carnivore: A Feast for a Beast

by filipdebont

As I told you before, they are not serving real game anymore in the Carnivore.We started with a great slice of Beef, then beef sausages, Lamb, Pork spare ribs and Chicken.Then came the Turkey, the Camel meat, Ostrich and finally Crocodile meat.All these meat dishes were served on big traditional Masai swords. These big swords were put above your dish and then the waiter cut off a slice of meat for you.I did not really like the crocodile meat, lots of bones and it tasted very fat.The camel meat was delicious, same as the ostrich meat, but that we also eat back home in Belgium (sometimes).And we ended up with an ice-cream.

Carnivore: A festivity for meat lovers

by filipdebont

The last evening of our Kenya - Uganda trip, we stopped in the very famous meat restaurant The Carnivore in Nairobi.That was before we went to the Nairobi airport in order to catch our flight back home.I found it a great way to end our African trip, and to eat together with the whole group (veggies included).

Ali Barbour's Cave Restaurant: Romantic coral cave restaurant

by GitaP

Alli Barbour is a unique dining experience within a natural coral cave. Its open to the night stars and on a clear night, you can dine under the Southern Cross. The restaurant offers a largely seafood menu with an extensive wine list. The food was fine but the magical aspct of an evening is the surroundings. The ochre/pink coral is subtly lit creating a magical ambience for a romatic evening. Get your hotel to make a booking and the restaurant will send a courteosy car to pick you up.

Nairobi - Phoenician: Lebanese + Sushi

by wrldtravler

Right so like the title review says, this is a Lebanese restaurant which also does good sushi. That just shows how popular the japanese cuisine is in Nairobi.The restaurant has a garden ambience and service can be relaxed (read: Slow if you're in a hurry).The mezze starters Hummus, Baba Ganoush etc are authetic and go well with pre-dinner cocktails.The Sushi makes a great Main Course.Alfresco Dining. HummusSushi Rolls

Nairobi - Talisman: Lovely Outdoor Garden

by wrldtravler

As the name suggests (It's named for a famous scottish novel) the restaurant is owned and frequented by the expat community of Karen & Nairobi.The Indoor theme is Moroccan / Arabian.. with low seating and lots of rugs thrown all over the place.The ambience outside is lovely on a bright sunny day. It's shaded by big trees and apart from the 1 Balinese gazebo has no particular decor theme apart from a gardenesque feel to it.There are lots of potted palms and other leafy plants.We went there for a few drinks in the afternoon after visiting the giraffe center and sat outside, just what we needed, after jostling with a group of schoolkids for the attention of the giraffes.Alfresco Dining. Cocktails were good. We had a few starters which hinted at a decent meal if we chose to eat there but nothing out of this world to convince us into having a full lunch.
