Try Highlands,at Khoja where you pick Westlands/Graffin ma3,they have the best dish in town and just opened another Highlands/Club Bettyz at Corner house which is a bit expensive. There's also another Highlands Tom Mboya st/ Ronald Ngala junction located at 1st floor Savoy house: Caution- be seated by 1pm,too popular!

Greeview is very slow in service,but food is great but rather expensive (about 200 bob) compared to Highlands (180). Alternatively try buffet at Seasons,Old Mutual. You eat as much as you can for just 250 bob- chicken,salad,pilau,beef,etc

Gawa dishes directly opposite Ufundi sacco Tom Mboya st has the cheapest food in tao but the atmosphere is so boring,full of old wazees and stone faced waiters. Nice place if really broke about 150 bob for the dish.

There's another ka-restaurant at the basement of Avenue Hse which is next to Cameo. Great dish but sio mob sana,very affordable.

As for me,I lunch at one of the most famous restaurants in town where you can see all top politicians and biz people. Not that I'm loaded,but just 'inside job' for just 100 bob,after 2pm....hehehehehe. Hapa Nai you just have to know the right buttons to press!

@se7en
My definition of cheap could even go to as low as fifty bob to around 150 for a good meal (excluding fries). Will try out that joint one of this days and see how it is. I guess because of the smoke it is not a place where someone would want to take their wife.

@ Kamaa
Also concerned about the smoke

@ Jaribu
Very good analysis. I see there are economic people like me. Which is this restaurant with all the politicians …..

@ Ja-Kom
Where exactly along River Road. I don’t have a problem with any side of Tao,so long as there is quality.

@ Impunity
Where behind Cianda House. And why the name impunity. We might wonder if we are talking to one of our politicians. Lol

@Akowally...you asked,...

'Which is this restaurant with all the politicians ….. '

He he he.' A gentleman never tells.' That's what mum always used to say,that gentlemen should always keep secrets and she also used to add,any man who tells his age will tell anything!

So,the famous hotel I talked about will remain nameless,otherwise my deal makers may end getting sacked if I mentioned it's name. But I can give some vital clues,it has a swimming pool,hosts many international diginiteries,One of the big accountants is called simon and Anyang' Nyongo just loves the place! He he he...
