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.

We’re talking about snacks today! I’ve been hearing and seeing a lot about Nick’s donuts for possibly over a year now but never really paid attention until recently. I’m not the biggest donut fan, I find them too doughy for my liking but these ones looked different from the classic donut so figured why not give them a try. Thanks to my friend’s suggestion, I took a drive to their Gigiri location because their lavington location is just a pickup point.
