This is one of those places that you visit and the memory stays with you. Nestled in Karen at the Souk, opposite The Hub Mall, the quaint restaurant consists of about a dozen tables. The ambiance and decor is eclectic, consisting of black and white photographs of famous personalities from the past, multi-coloured throws and vases. The open salad bar is quite awesome and the food is made fresh on order. As you wait for your meal, you can slip into the Souk and shop for high quality, hand-made jewellery.

Hell's Kitchen

Marafa Depression in Malindi, famously known as Hell's Kitchen is a small canyon located in Marafa town in Malindi that is blistering hot. Locals call it Nyari, which in Kigiriama means depression. Erosion from wind and rain resulted in a majestic valley surrounded by crimson hills and gorges. Locals tell the story of a thriving city occupied by the Wakiza clan many many years ago. The wealthy lived decadent lives in the middle of the city while the poor wallowed in squalor in the periphery. The glaring gap between the two classes angered the gods and in turn, they sunk the middle of the city, burying the rich and all their possessions, hence the scarlet red colour of the site. You can book an organised tour from a tours and travel company, take a  2 1/2 to 3 hour matatu ride from Mombasa to Malindi then walk a short distance to Marafa or book a flight to Malindi from Nairobi.
