Nairobi Restaurant Week is Back and Runs Thursday 26th January to Sunday 5th Feb

The 4th edition of Nairobi Restaurant Week is set to run from Thursday 26th January to Sunday 5th January. NRW spotlights the city’s colourful culinary scene which brings together over 60 sit-down restaurants across the city offering great food for 12 days. I’ve been an enthusiastic supporter of NRW since the beginning and I must say that it has mostly lived up to expectations.

Several companies have come on board this year to support the initiative by Kenya’s largest online restaurant guide and booking engine, EatOut, with the title sponsor being Absolut Vodka. All NRW dinner menus will include a complimentary Absolut Vodka cocktail.

During the course of the NRW, restaurants will offer fixed menus for lunch and dinner. There’ll be 3 options available: A 2 course lunch at Ksh. 950, a 3 course dinner with a complementary beverage at Ksh.1,950 and a 5 course dinner with a complimentary beverage at Ksh,3,950. The 5 course option is new and I have to say I am looking forward to see the execution by the restaurants that will be offering it. Each course on the menu will have at least one option for vegetarians. To promote responsible drinking, EatOut has this year partnered with Little Cabs in order to offer discounted taxi rides to and from restaurants. The rides will be redeemable using a voucher code.

One lucky person will win the chance to fly to Bangkok with a friend for the ultimate street food tour, courtesy of Holiday Bazaar and Emirates. To stand a chance to win, all you need to do is visit the Nairobi Restaurant Week 2017 website and register. There’ll also be other great prizes including Absolut hampers, Samsung mobile phones and EatOut restaurant vouchers.
