Miss T's Kitchen - Ocho Rios
We are in Ocho Rios today🇯🇲 Miss T’s Kitchen came highly recommended from the internets so I was excited to finally try it out. It’s such a vibrant place with so much colour and a little playground right at the entrance😊
The hostess we met at the door wasn’t in the best mood though, not sure why… she barely wanted to seat us yet the place was quite empty for a Sunday evening.
The Pelican Grill - Montego Bay
Starting the Jamaican series today is the Pelican Grill that is located right on the Hip Strip of Montego Bay, overlooking the sea. It’s a family owned restaurant that’s been in business since 1964, serving up authentic Jamaican food. We came here for dinner on a Saturday night and didn’t find it too packed, which is nice. The decor feels very classic diner like, nice cosy booths with lots of room for big or small groups.
The Nook Cafe & Bar - Nanyuki
Talking about a nice culinary gem in Nanyuki today. The Nook actually used to be in Nairobi and then they moved to Nanyuki to a bigger space that fits their aesthetic quite perfectly I feel.
Located on Haile Sellasie Drive, the Nook has a very ranch style aesthetic. Lots of grass, lots of wood features, and lots of outdoor seating available. They have a beautiful succulent garden built into some tables that made me wanna have a little succulent garden built into my coffee table too.
Nifty Cafe & Wine Bar - Tigoni
Another day, another great gem discovered in Tigoni. Tunahama Tigoni ama? It seems to be the new Naivasha and I’m not mad at it😊 Heard about Nifty many months ago from my cousin and I always wanted to go but just never had the time until December of last year.
I finally made my way down there with a dear friend for one of our many food dates😋 The drive to Tigoni makes me very happy, I think being surrounded by fresh air and lush greenery is what we are severely lacking here in the city so this little escape is worth it every single time.
Como Tigoni
Last December saw the great migration of Nairobians into Tigoni to experience the newest restaurant in that area - Como. Como made a splash in the food scene late last year and people were even more excited to find out that it is a restaurant by popular fine dining chef, Steph the Chef. If you’ve had her food when she was still doing deliveries only then you know she will give you quite an experience at her very chic eatery in beautiful Tigoni.
Bricolage - New York
New York is a foodie’s haven and I love trying out so many new restaurants whenever I’m there. During my last visit I went to a couple and this was the first one I documented. I went to dinner here with my cousin who lives in Brooklyn and swears by this place so I had to try it.
Bricolage is a modern Vietnamese restaurant that has a casual vibe to it.
