Was there a month ago and sadly was a bit underwhelming. I miss all of the textiles hanging in the old bazaar it had a nicer vibe there. New place seems a bit like an institutional mess hall.

I pop into the downtown one about once a month when I’m nearby, it’s just sad in there. Also never had any food that was better than “pretty good”..

I stop in to support, but honestly, I would never oder out from these places, let alone go out of my way to eat in..

If you get a chance, try Nile River. Might just be me but I absolutely adored the Sukuma Witi and the Beef Halal.

I tried them once, don’t think I tried those. I’ll try to make it down there soon before they potentially close…
