Traditional Sweet Dishes
Mandazi
Mandazi are slightly sweet fried dough pockets often flavored with coconut milk or cardamom, and street vendors in Nairobi sell them hot for breakfast and tea-time snacks.
Kashata
Kashata is a chewy coconut and peanut confection sometimes scented with ginger or cardamom, and it has long been a popular homemade sweet passed between neighbors in Nairobi.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Ugali
Ugali is a firm maize porridge that acts as the backbone of Kenyan meals, and people traditionally tear off a piece with their hands to scoop up stews and greens.
Sukuma wiki
Sukuma wiki, which means 'stretch the week' in Swahili, is a hardy sautéed green that helps families turn small amounts of meat or fish into a full meal.
Nyama choma
Nyama choma is Kenyan barbecue at its most social, grilled over charcoal and shared communally while friends debate the best cuts and marinades.
Traditional Beverages
Chai
Kenyan chai is brewed strong with lots of milk and sugar, and many Nairobians treat the spiced, frothy cup as the social glue of morning and afternoon life.
Mursik
Mursik is a smoked, fermented milk from the Kalenjin people, kept in gourds and prized for its tangy, slightly smoky flavor and long shelf life.
Busaa
Busaa is a home-brewed millet or maize beer with a sour-sweet, cloudy profile, and every neighborhood batch tastes a little different because families guard their own recipes.

Get to the David Sheldrick Trust at opening to see the baby elephants, queues thin out by mid morning and photo chances improve.
Local nyama choma is unforgettable, very affordable. I felt fine in central areas but avoided walking alone after midnight.
Weekend crowds and pushy vendors can be tiring. Small museums are worth an hour or two if you like history.
Use matatus for short hops, ask locals which route to take. Always carry small cash notes and confirm the destination before boarding.
Energy here is contagious, lots of live music and art. Traffic destroys plans though, build extra time into every day.
