What is Nairobi Choma?
Food news and restaurant reviews from Nairobi. Nairobi Choma will be your guide to the best (and the worst) the city has to offer.
For the uninitiated, Nairobi Choma is a play on Nyama Choma - delicious roast meat - which many consider to be Kenya's national dish.
Our layout will change over the coming weeks, as we add spice and garnish to the site. In the meantime, let us know what you think in the comments section.
Why Nairobi Choma?
- Because restaurant reviews in the printed press are unreliable.
- Because (the otherwise excellent) eatout.co.ke is driven by their booking system.
- Because Tripadvisor is a joke.
- Because the other bloggers are far too pleased with themselves.
The Nairobi Choma ethos:
Our reviews will always be impartial. Any freebies, junkets or special invites will be declared up-front so that you can make your own minds up.
We'll try our best to respond to comments and to follow-up your recommendations and great places to eat.
All tables will be booked anonymously, ensuring we have the same good or bad experience as anybody else.
We can guarantee bad smartphone photography. Our restaurant photos will be taken discreetly so as not to spoil the enjoyment of other diners.
Who are Nairobi Choma?
The Jiffler is the rambling gourmand behind the strangely popular Experimental Jifflings, Dakar Restaurant Reviews, and Kigali Restaurant Reviews blogs. Jiffler has had food articles and photography published in old-fashioned print and has featured in top restaurant critic Jay Rayner's column in the UK Guardian. Always travelling and always hungry, The Jiffler is not afraid to catch a crab with his bare hands, munch on fried sparrow heads, or steal mangoes from your garden. He is afraid of Kenya Airways' in-flight meals. He is Nairobi Choma's product taster, experimenter, campaigner, idealistic enthusiast, and all round Jiffler.
Johnny Bahati eats out over 300 times a year. He is as happy navigating the menu at the finest Michelin-starred temples of gastronomy as he is arguing over the price of a roasted maize cob. Bahati is not impressed by fashionable 'concept' restaurants, pretentious menus or snobbery; he's looking for quality and passion in equal measures. Bahati is our chief restaurant reviewer, cynic, and gin taster. He thinks 'The Jiffler' is a stupid name.

ReplyDeleteMy experience working with Benjamin ( A Loan Officer) was a pleasure. He was completely upfront about the costs and whether the deal made sense financially. In fact, when I explained my situation, he advised me not to refinance unless the current terms improved even though it cost him business. When he later contacted me about a better deal, I jumped at it because he had earned my trust"Definitely made me feel confident that I was working with a great loan company / great business person who knew his worth of business lines.I will advies anyone here looking for any kind of loan to contact Mr Benjamin because he and his company helped me with a loan at the rate 2% which was very impressive.I had Mr Benjamin contact Office Email on .... 247officedept@gmail.com
