A visit to Nanyuki is not complete without a treat The Trout Tree restaurant

The Trout Tree restaurant, Nanyuki. [Mose Sammy]

Every country has a must-experience restaurant whose food is so unique that it is almost impossible to reproduce. Take the Ithaa Undersea Restaurant in the Maldives, for instance, set more than 16 feet below sea level. The first of its kind, this restaurant opened in 2005. It is encased in a transparent acrylic roof and offers its 14 diners a 270-degree panoramic view of sea creatures swimming in the crystal clear waters. Then you have New Zealand’s Redwoods Treehouse where diners eat in pod-shaped structures hanging 32 feet above ground.

If you are not easily spooked, then a stop at Eternity is a welcome treat. This Ukranian restaurant owned by undertakers is built to mirror a coffin. Its windowless space has funeral paraphernalia as decor and even the menu is inspired by death.
