I recently had the pleasure of visiting Ukunda Diani Kienyeji Chicken in Nairobi, and it was an experience that purely encapsulated the essence of traditional Kenyan cuisine. As I walked into the restaurant, I was greeted by the warm atmosphere filled with the delightful aroma of grilled chicken, which instantly made my mouth water.
Being a fan of Kenyan food, I eagerly anticipated trying their renowned kienyeji chicken, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! I ordered a quarter chicken served with a side of ugali and sukuma wiki. The price was an incredible Ksh 450, making it not only delicious but also easy on the wallet.
The first bite of the kienyeji chicken was divine—perfectly marinated with a blend of spices that highlighted the chicken's natural flavors without overwhelming them. The tenderness of the meat contrasted perfectly with the slight crisp of the skin, a delight for any food lover. The ugali, soft and warm, complemented the chicken beautifully, while the sukuma wiki added a nutritious and tasty contrast that made the meal well-balanced.
While enjoying my meal, I couldn't help but notice the attentive service provided by the staff. One waiter, in particular, truly stood out: Peter. He was quick to answer any questions I had about the menu and offered great recommendations, making me feel valued as a customer. His friendly demeanor added to the welcoming feel of Ukunda Diani.
The restaurant also offers various other delights, but I had to stick with the classic kienyeji chicken, renowned among local food enthusiasts. Many online reviews echo my sentiments, highlighting the affordable prices and the generous portions served at Ukunda Diani. It seems that this place has managed to strike a perfect balance between quality and cost.
I took a moment to observe the other diners, many of whom were indulging in the mixed meat platter that looked exceptionally tempting. I overheard a couple at the next table raving about the goat stew, which they mentioned was juicy and bursting with flavor, sold around Ksh 600. It definitely left me curious for my next visit!
