Our restaurant

A shared dining experience that showcases the very best flavours of Zanzibar

For ages Zanzibar has been a main trading hub for spices on the East African coast, which has been the inspiration for our restaurant

Shaping the future of hospitality

A hands-on learning journey empowering local people to join the hospitality business.

Exotic flavours with fresh and healthy ingredients and homegrown spices

Shared Dining

Our local chefs craft a delightful fusion of African, Indian, and Arabic cuisines, offering a shared dining experience that showcases the very best flavours of Zanzibar.

Dining locations

You can dine at our restaurant, under the shaded pergola at the pool or privately: a romantic candle lit dinner can be set-up under the palm trees or at your own villa.

Half-board concept

We offer a half-board concept which  includes full breakfast and a 3-course dinner with daily menus based on what the season and market has to offer. Coffee, tea and homemade juice are complimentary while other soft drinks and alcoholic beverages  are at an extra charge.

Every afternoon at 4pm we do Tea Time including a few complementary bites
