Wasp and Sprout
Today’s review is coming from deep in Loresho, at a nice little family run cafe. Wasp & Sprout has been around for quite a long time but I’ve never visited before. Mostly because years ago they had this thing about closing at 2pm on Sundays which I found odd because why offer brunch if you’re gonna close that early? So that put me off going there but now they’ve extended their hours and their menu has also expanded quite a bit too.
Zero20
Located a few feet away from the Ankole restaurant in Kitisuru,, Zero20 is a fairly new restaurant, and it’s quite a big establishment. They have a fine dining section on the inside and a more casual dining section in the back area.
I was here for a birthday dinner so they had already done a nice little setup for our group in the back area.
The inside section is very formal so come dressed accordingly (though they’re not strict on dress codes).
Bao Box
I finally got to check out the newly redone Bao Box after what seems like very many years since I was last at the original Bao Box. It’s located on General Mathenge Drive in quite an expansive compound. The entrance is a nice little arch pathway covered in lights leading you into the reception area where you’re welcomed by the hostess and a nice neon sign blazing the words ‘welcome to the jungle’… okay theme!
Steph the Chef
I’ve been wanting to try anything from Steph the Chef for ages! Finally, one fine Sunday, together with some friends, I finally got to try her brunch package.
First thing to note - you need to order these in advance because they sell out really quickly. I think I reached out to her two weeks prior because the last time I tried to book a few days to - there were no slots left.
La Villa Restaurant and Wine Bar
Italian food is never a bad idea 🙃 La Villa is located in Kitisuru in a nice vast compound. It’s a beautifully done restaurant that has both indoor and outdoor sections, with plenty of space for large parties and intimate booths for smaller ones as well. I sat at a corner by a stunning wine bottle wall, the red tops and the dark bottles add to the moody ambience which I really love.
Classique Burger House
I’ve never actually visited this place but I’ve ordered from them plenty of times. If you’re looking for a place with simple yet great burgers, this is it.
They have a super popular combo called the fat boy combo that goes for KSH1,300 - it’s a double beef/chicken with all the works, lettuce, caramelised onions, cheddar cheese and this super yummy Turkish burger sauce that they have in all their burgers.
