Măm Măm Vietnamese Kitchen
We finally have an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Nairobi! Măm Măm is located at the Mwanzi Market in Westlands and is the first Vietnamese restaurant to open shop in Nairobi. I was very excited to try it out because they focus on Vietnamese street food and one thing about Asian cuisine, it’s gonna slap😋
The restaurant itself is such vibes already from the thematic red flowing through the place to the colourful seats and decor, it transports you to a place of fun, food and vibes.
Nick's Donuts
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.
Coffee & Bagels
Taking a small break from the big restaurants today to talk about this small but cool cafe in the middle of Kilimani. Right off Lenana Road, coffee and bagels has a nice big sign so you can’t miss it and is in the same compound as possibly the busiest car wash in the area (that place is never empty!)
When they first opened years ago, I was hesitant that they’d actually have good bagels and I was right… at the time.
Fiesta Farm
Fiesta Farm is located in the heart of Hardy, Karen. It’s quite a drive so prepare yourself accordingly in terms of time. The restaurant is set up on a vast compound which I assume also has the farm it’s named after. Loved the large amount of green space that people can use to chill in the sun, kids to play in… perfect for a sunny Sunday out.
Unfortunately we were there in the middle of June so it was the opposite of sunny - more like freezing, but because they know how to make their customers happy, there are plenty of Maasai blankets for you and your group to use to keep warm.
