Muthaiga Country Club
Muthaiga Country Club really is the lap of luxury and comfort. Not in a fluffy towels and spa kind of way, but in a comfortable, friendly, jovial way. MCC is a little bit of Britain as it was 50 plus years ago.
Yes you have to be a member, or be the guest of a member to go there. So find yourself some proper friends. Or, if you happen to be an officer in the Queen's army and you find yourself in Kenya, then you get temporary membership. Use it.
Muthaiga Country Club, is, funnily enough, in Muthaiga. It features in the film 'out of Africa' as Karen Blixen was the only woman ever allowed into the men's bar. The men's bar is still there, though I'm sure it's very dull.
My very favouritest thing to do on a friday evening was to bully my friend into playing tennis with me at the club, then going swimming, having a cocktail at the pool bar, changing for dinner, then drinks with friends, then a huge meal with plenty wine, then off to the Black Cotton night club. At this point I feel I should let you into the secret of why I loved Muthaiga, you see, I'm a Scot, and it shows. You cannot pay at the club with cash, everything goes on your bill. Or, if you are a guest, it goes on someone else's bill! Bring on the wine!
The bar stays open really very late, which is great. You do have to change to have dinner, no jeans, jackets for the boys, that sort of thing but really it just makes it more fun.
The restaurant is even better than everything else. The steak is brilliant. The only problem is that there is no chocolate pudding except black forest gateau which doesn't count.
So that's about all about Muthaiga.
