“One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop
whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.”
Luciano Pavarotti
The third edition of Nairobi Restaurant Week, in partnership with Nederburg, will took place from 28th January – 7th February 2016 across 50 of the city’s finest restaurants. Each establishment had designed a limited edition menu to tickle your taste buds.
Homeless of Nairobi
Nairobi Restaurant Week allowed us the privilege of dining in some of Nairobi’s best restaurants. Whether our experiences were great or lackluster, it was an opportunity that we wouldn’t normally get at that price point. We felt it was necessary to realize this privilege and give back to the homeless community here in Nairobi.
According to reports by UNICEF, there are between 200,000 - 300,000 homeless people in Kenya, with more than 60,000 of that number concentrated in Nairobi’s Central Business District. We have partnered with Homeless of Nairobi to give back to our community for Nairobi Restaurant Week.
The Homeless of Nairobi is a charity organization that provide food and other basic necessities to people living on the streets of Nairobi. The proceeds from Nairobi Restaurant Week will be distributed in the form of food and other necessities by the EatOut Kenya team.
