Zanzibar Restaurant: The Aussi's have taken over......!
by Tidalstream2
I just so happened to come across a great little bar in Rue Rivoli, just around the corner from the main BIA Niger bank. The owner William is a really down to earth Australian guy, formerly a photographer who settled in Niamey. The bar had been open for about five weeks when I was first there in Nov 2005...It's a very modern bar/restaurant which wouldn't look out of place in any modern city. It has a couple of large flat screens, great to catch up on some of the sport if your into that..Food was very reasonable...main courses about 3000 CFA. It was just a treat, kind of bolt hole really.....and i ended up there taking breakfast most days,and back in the evening. William is a mind of information, particularly if your interested in photography.....but will also give you the rundown of interesting places to visit in Niamey.
