Mythos Taverna
This new bombshell in the restaurant scene has been turning heads with every pic posted and every reel shared. Mythos is located at Mwanzi Market, Westlands and lemme just say… I haven’t seen a restaurant that aesthetically pleasing in quite some time.
Now I have never been to Greece (but soon come IJN) but I’ve seen a lot of pictures of Greece and their interior designer hit the nail on the head with the whole Grecian concept.
Bun and Beef
So I don’t find myself in Village market often but on the rare chance that I am, I make time to try out a new eatery there. On my last visit I decided to try out Bun & Beef which came quite highly recommended from a couple people.
Bun & Beef is located in the new wing of the village market at the food court. So it’s mostly a stall where you can make your order and pay and then you can have your meal in the general food court seating area.
Joto Ramen
Joto Ramen is the new kid on the block in regards to Ramen spots and I was glad when they finally got a standalone location at the Alchemist because I kept missing their pop-ups! Also, I did not know the alchemist had that much space because Joto Ramen is quite spacious - it opens out at the back of alchemist with lots of seating and the floating red lanterns create a fun vibe be it day or night.
Big Sam’s Pâtisserie Chocolaterie
Big Sam’s Pâtisserie is an artisan dessert studio known for its elegant pastries, handcrafts chocolates, chunky and yummy cookies and mousse cakes. Founded by Sam Ayany, an internationally trained pastry chef whose love for dessert has him bringing in a blend of French technique and global flavours with a Kenyan twist to his decadent desserts.
Sam so kindly sent me a few packs of his unique chocolates and cookies to sample and share my thoughts with you all.
Mysa: Wine & Dine
This place was a surprising find as I thought I was heading to Mythos - the Greek restaurant, only to find out that it was actually Mysa (confused the names lol). Located in the Gigiri lifestyle courtyard, Mysa doesn’t come across as a fine dining restaurant at first glance but once you sit down and get a feel of the place and the menu… you can tell it’s not just a casual setup.
Amani Ya Juu Cafe
This cozy outdoor restaurant set in the heart of Riverside is a place I’ve been meaning to visit for years!! Literal years and I finally got to go this year and was very excited about it Amani ya juu is actually the name of the gift shop in the same compound and Amani Garden cafe is the cafe’s actual name. But most people know it as Amani ya juu meaning peace from above.
