 Jacaranda and lobby bar by Saagar
This place is fine for your hotel breakfast, sitting down with friends and colleagues after a hard day's meeting or whatever. But perhaps not exactly the place for a night out in town and a super dinner. If you want improved food there is the Steak & Grill just outdoors of Jacaranda (same management).
The food at Jacaranda is either buffet (so-so) or a la carte which was good and sufficient. No need to waddle throught he buffet when the a la carte dishes are good and filling. The clientele is international, the management is Indian (of the Taj group), and the food is inbetween. Lots of run-of-the-mill international dishes (spaghettis, steaks, grilled fish and so on). On Fridays they put up an indian buffet which give the place more of a character. Don't misunderstand, the food was good and fresh, but not a place to be impressed or to impress.
On a late night not bothering eating fancy or tasting something new, I had fish and chips which was very good. On another occasion I had their fillet steak which was also very tasty.
A good draw for this place was draft Mosi beer - big glasses! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: Taj Pamodzi Hotel, central Lusaka.

 Fillet steak with pepper sauce by Saagar
The place is fairly small, with a bar at one end, and a lounge at the other. Efficient kitchen, service, waiters - impeccable. Amongst some dreary days the Marlin was a highlight.
The menu is large, and walks you through a series of ways to cook up an ox, sheep of fish. Thee were other things, too, but these key items figured in most dishes in one way or the other.
I am impressed that they have not pushed up their prices as the food and atmosphere is by far better than at other places I ate in town. 6 of us ate and drank for USD 108,-
Tuesay-Saturday lunch and dinner, Mondays dinner only, Sunday closed.
I wasn't very original in my choice - I went for the fillet pepper steak! The Marlin is reknown for this dish, and I can vouch for it, too!
A picky Namibian friend insisted on grilled fish (Nile perch) and a Swazi colleague missed his highland lamb and went for lamb cutlets. Both choices were apparently excellent.
Good range of wines, but true to local tradition I stuck to Mosi lager as a complement to my pepper steak.

I don't remember what I ate, I don't remember what it cost, it didn't matter. All that mattered was that we were sitting on chairs around a table inside a house, after three days of exercise on Zambezi :-) What I am sure about is that the food Warren prepared for us during our wild camping in the river was better! The surroundings too, although the ambient in Gwabi Lodge was nice enough. Leave a Comment Theme: AfricanAddress: Gwabi LodgeDirections: At the confluence of the rivers Kafue and Zambezi

 Arabian Nights before the
no-food-riot by Saagar
Good portions, well made food. They've got a good rap on the tandoori here.
Extremely busy Friday and Saturday nights, a bit impractical place for servicing during such a rush, and the air con seems to waft kitchen odours into the eating area. Very slow at serving the right stuff at the right place during the rush. But as the food is ok, try this place on a slower day.

 Mosi beer by Saagar
Castle is slightly stronger and seen as the sign of moderinity among Zambians, while hold on to my statement that Mosi is much better.
Mosi lends its name to Victoria falls, so does the label. Leave a Comment Theme: Pub/BreweryPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than average

my favorite restraunt in livingstone would have to be the chinese place that opened up only one week before my roomie and i got there.
everything best quality! (heheh... if you understand chinese cooking and philosoiphy, then you will get the joke)
..seriously, the best thign about this restraunt other than the food if the fact that the chinese nationals who moved there will come out to watch you eat if you use the chop-sticks (until we ate there, i do not think they had ever seen non-asians using them)... the whole staff came out and watched us for about 5 minutes... you cant beat that!
the freshly made egg rolls... along with anything else that contained no seafood Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: the restraunt is located between the museum and shoprite... i know thats a bit vauge, but i cant remember the street name :-(
