Kuku kienyeji has found its way into the menu of almost all restaurants and high-end hotels. Recently, I visited a popular joint in downtown Nairobi and could not ignore the agony of disgruntled patrons when they were told that “kuku kienyeji imeisha” (we are out of kuku kienyeji).
Kuku kienyeji has been around for as long as we can remember but only now that it has become a delicacy. By why the current upsurge in demand?
