The Veranda

Just down the road from the Langata link is a really nice day time restaurant called The Veranda/Utamaduni. Actually having seen their webpage perhaps they are open at night at the weekends, this might be worth checking out. I'm not sure why it has two names, it just seems to.

It's down a really bad road so don't go in a low slung car.
It is a restaurant that makes eating out seem very like eating in your own garden without the hassle of having to spill all the drink all over yourself.

The tables are scattered about the garden so you are not very close to other people. There are bird tables so the bird song is fairly deafening. There are even extremely expensive curios should you like that kind of thing (plus the funny American and Japanese tourists with 6 foot girafe carvings that come with this sort of place).

The food is really very good, it's not wildly inventive but is does taste extremely good and there are sea food dishes and stuff if you want to treat yourself. There is also a chocolate brownie, with chocolate icecream covered in chocolate sauce for pudding so my advice is start with pudding and then see what else you can fit in.

There are swings and garden toys for small children. All in all, this is not a place to go for a wild time, but for a sunday lunch it's ideal.
