Gastronomic menu at Tamambo

By Caroline Nyanga

Located on the first floor of The Mall in Westlands, Tamambo has just launched a new-look menu. Dubbed ‘Molecular Gastronomy Menu’, the meals are largely influenced by Japanese cuisines though most of the ingredients are Kenyan.

Sipping a glass of fresh passion juice worth Sh220, I sampled the menu. What makes it unique is the fact that, unlike most menus where customers choose what they want before it can be prepared, here the 20-course meal is prepared at once.

A variety of seafood is also part of the comprehensive and artistic menu at the restaurant, not to mention the delicious fresh juices and drinks. Tamambo prefers to use indigenous ingredients and making the best of them rather than import foods.
