Roast House: Good and cheap Kenyan eats

by Osmun79

The restaurant is small and simple, but the food is fresh and quite good. Goat Meat, Fried Chicken, Hamburgers,and Tilapia are all common here and are prepared fresh. It get's crowded around lunchtime on weekdays, but after 2 pm, it settles down a bit.If you do go, ask the manger for Alex. Alex has been my waiter of choice there for a while and always brings your meal hot and as you ordered it. He works hard and deserves a good tip, in my opinion. Mbuzi Choma Fry- it's basically cooked in a light sauce and served with Ugali (a pasty white substance) or Chips(french fries) and is a good meal for two people. I usually have it with Coke or my local favorite soda Stoney.

Watamu Grill: Grilling in stile: Watamu Grill, Dolphin

by Myndo

Watamu Grill - is one of the two restaurants at the Dolphin hotel. The other one is an italian one. As the name suggests, Watamu Grill specialices in grilled meat and seafood. The Food here was very good, especially the Fish soup and the carpaggio (raw meat with olive oil, and very spicy). The waiters were very friendly. For dessert we had crepes with mango or bananas, flambee. Grilled sea food, Carpaggio

Blue Lagoon: Seafood at the Pool: Blue Lagoon, Flamingo

by Myndo

Blue Lagoon -The Restaurant at the Flamingo Hotel. Very nicely located at the big Pool, quite a view in the night with all the lights. They specialize in Sea Food (not that you don?t get that at the other restaurants as well). Try the catch of the day. The Food is fresh and well served. The lobster was extremely huge.A little problem seems to be the dessert sometimes ? they don?t actually have all that they have on the menue card.

ASC Hotels (Flamingo, Dolphin etc.): Food at the ASC Hotels

by Myndo

The ASC hotels do have a food policy, which means that they garantee you best quality and clean food. Generally it is safe to eat everything they offer, from salad plates to fruits to mayonnaise sauces. Anyway, most of the people that come to Kenya will have stomach troubles, also these that stay at the ASC hotels.The problem consists of several parts. For one you will eat a lot more fruits and vegetables and maybe drink more than you do at home. This kind of diet will have some changes on your toilet going. The second thing is, that they cook with a special vegetable oil (so they say). And the third id, that you maybe can not resist drinks or food that you are offered outside the „safe“ hotel grounds.I never had bigger problems, but saw many that did.Take Imodium with you if you suffer to omuch, or let the problem take care of itself, just drink enough.Imodium (Loperamid) is something...

Twiga Camp: Breakfast at the Hippo Pool

by Myndo

Breakfast in the Kimana Game Reserve was something special, that is for sure.How often in live do you get the opportunity to have something to eat next to a pool with some hippos in it? Not that they are that quiet, from time to time they break the surface of the pool to loudly grunt at each other or blow water as if they were whales ...And you are sitting next to said pool on tables with white linen on it and have eggs and ham and hot tomatoes, muesli and and and.. Muesli with milk, tea

Twiga Camp, Dinner: Hemingway Dinner at the Feet of Kilimanjaro

by Myndo

Hemingway DinnerOne of the meals you get in the Kimana Reservation. Served in their big tent, in front a camp fire (huge and tended by a Masai) next to the small river. The people that serve it have clothes like they were used in the colonial times – long white coat like dresses with little red hats. What we got to eat: filled egg, consommé with sherry, spring rolls (did Hemmingway know these??), sorbet citron with champagne, steak with pottoes and carrots and for dessert crepes with bitter oranges.Very nice was also the elefant that came visiting us later when we all relaxed around the campfire.

Kilulu: Kilulu Seafood expedition

by Myndo

Kilulu seafood - One of the excursions offered by the African safari club. It is also included in the honeymoon package they offer. Done only on saturdays.After 3 o’clock you are transported to the Hotel Bas Al Kashar that is not located at the beach of the ocean, but at a Meeresarm that goes quite far in the land. There a boat (the Kilulu) will get you and you slowly drive more inland through the mangroves and seeing waterbirds until the sun gets down, quite picturesque behind some Baobab trees. Then you head back, passing the Al Kashar until you reach the Marina of the ASC. In the night you sit under the starlit sky and enjoy a meal of several courses – all the seafood you can imagine. Starting with mussels, shrimps, Fish and ending with Lobster. All excellently cooked and served. You come back to your hotel after 10 o’clock.

Kigwambogo cafe: fill up for less than a dollar

by wawira

Your getting picky here its a small Kenyan Market hoteli. Walls are smoke stained, half the menu isn't available, but in two years I never got sick from the food and that's saying something. If you ever wonder where to eat ask a woman where she would eat not a man. the women have to keep the family healthy letting a mon choose sent me to nairobi hospital for a week. It is by far the best I've had, and its cheap. everything is good, they have the crispiest chapati's in town. the cabbage is great, the githeri wonderful but only go afternoon so the beans have a chance to get soft.

Celebration

by Backpackermoose

Yeah! I survived 30 days on a truck through south-eastern Africa!! Here I am celebrating with some of the human participants on the tour, in the restaurant of the hotel we were staying in at the outskirts of Nairobi. I am not sure, but maybe I am the first moose in the world to have done that? *Hm, is that something for Guinness book of records? * The vegetarian dish, offcourse, I am a moose!

Chez les animaux: Cleaning vegetables

by filipdebont

So Gametrackers provided a cook (what’s in the name), and we had to help preparing the food.Not that we really needed to cook, no, no, we needed to help with the preparation.So we were with 17 travellers in our group, 2 strong men were selected to load and unload the luggage in and out of the truck.The other 15 were divided in 5 groups of 3. So every 5 days you needed to help preparing the food.Mostly this was cleaning the vegetables, like grating carrots. I can still remember that on my first duty we had to peel potatoes, oh my god there were so many, we joked that we had to peel potatoes for the whole village . . . (lol)Oh yes, may be you have noticed that I had pointed 41$ and more as the price, of course this was not for one meal. No, but at the beginning of the trip we all had to pay 280 euro for the meals (salary of the cook included). Afterwards we all found, that as the food was...
