My love for butter chicken has no bounds and Ando Foods get it right every time. Butter chicken is and will forever be a fave! The Palak Paneer was a first for me to try this year & the lactose intolerant in me persevered & survived. I also tried the Chicken Masala curry - didn’t enjoy that one as much as the butter chicken but it wasn’t bad. The curries come with freshly buttered Naan or garlic Naan.

Located in the CBD, along Aga Khan walk, this place is fairly new. I went on a Saturday afternoon which was not the best idea. It was filled with ALL the Gen Zs plus so many kids… Nothing against them but wow it was so full of the youths. There was a line outside the door guys… I didn’t want to come back again another day but my friend wasn’t willing to wait - so we left.

This is one of my favourite places to go to for brunch! They went really simple on decor: minimalist, muted tones and an open plan space which makes it seem bigger than it is, there’s some outside seating but majority is indoors. The menu is quite limited, which may concern some but for what they offer I think the menu fits. We had some coffees, the Chicken and Waffle (KSH1,200/), Shakshuka (KSH1,200/), Apple Crumble French toast (KSH1,100/) and Prawn tempura (KSH1300/).

This is yet another Ando Foods creation, and it is also delivery only. They focus on a variety of wings and I’m not a major wings person but since I’ve enjoyed Ando’s other brands, figured it won’t hurt to try. So far I’ve tried 4 out of their 8 wing flavours - Lemon pepper, Sticky Asian, Classic BBQ & Thai Chilli Mango. Lemme start with the one I love the most - Lemon Pepper.

Geco Cafe has grown so much from the little cafe it used to be. I remember I’d always go there and get something to eat as I wait for my car to get washed at the Geco car wash. Now it’s a full blown gastropub and the home of live music in Nairobi. I’ve been to Geco multiple times from the little cafe days to present day where all the cool kids hang out now.

Today’s review is about a place that pleasantly surprised me. It’s located along the Westfield Hub strip mall along Likoni road, Kilimani. My friend introduced me to this place on a day when I was so starved! I was ready to eat anything and he was like - let’s get Jollof! It’s quite small so not really a place to dine in but perfect for takeaway. We got the Jollof lunchbox (KSH850), they had a BOGOF offer so one was chicken and the other had beef.
