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.

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.

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.

We are in Spring valley today talking about Sugar Bowl - a very cute restaurant with a great menu to match. The decor is nice and simple and minimalist but also elegant - the warm lighting in various pockets of the restaurant particularly really caught my eye. Great lighting really makes or breaks a place. They have an upper and lower section with outside seating as well on both sections.

Yunion is a brunch cafe and bar located at the GTC building in Westlands. It has a nice set up with both an indoor and outdoor section, outfitted very nicely, lots of greenery, lots of warm lighting - they also have a dinosaur statue outside which I found quite odd given their decor but I assume it has a purpose😄 Came here for an early brunch. Their menu seems to be a mix of Asian dishes, some continental dishes and Italian.

Ayeyo now has a dine-in restaurant! Love seeing a restaurant making big strides in such a short time😊 Located on the ground floor of Timau Plaza, Ayeyo takes up a nice little corner of the floor welcoming you with its stunning yet minimalist decor. Warm lighting, lush plants, comfy, cozy seats and a beautifully tiled backdrop in a stunning yet understated green… Everything here was outfitted in great detail and as a lover of great interior design, I was very pleased to see all the little bits and bobs that make up Ayeyo come to life.
