K'Osewe Ranalo Foods
Nairobi, Kenya
The read// why locals go
K'Osewe Ranalo Foods cooks the food of western Kenya for Nairobi's Luo community, which makes it one of the few places in the city where a specific regional tradition is served without adjustment. That means tilapia, omena, the small dried lake fish eaten by the handful, stiff maize meal and traditional greens, cooked the way they are cooked around Lake Victoria rather than the way a city restaurant might soften them. Plates run to around KES 500. The room off Thika Road in Pangani is plain and busy, and the cooking is the entire reason anyone is there.
