Nyama Mama
Nairobi, Kenya
The read// why locals go
Nyama Mama, at The Hub on Karen Road, puts Kenyan home cooking into a contemporary diner format: maize meal, braised collard greens and grilled meat plated with more design than a traditional kitchen would bother with, aimed at a younger Nairobi crowd. The reworking is real rather than cosmetic, taking dishes usually eaten at home and giving them a room to be ordered in. Main courses come in at about KES 1200, lunch and dinner both, and the result reads as a version of Kenyan food written for the city its customers actually live in.
