Guidebook for Kigali
Food Scene
was opened a few months ago by an American with a love of food keen to combine a grab-and-go concept with high quality and healthy meals. It’s located next to the Kigali Public Library in Kacyiru and it’s a dream for anyone who’s sick of eating out at places in Kigali where starches and fried food reign supreme. Thankfully, this super cute new place has a menu that’s packed with healthy options and they manage to give us good-for-you food with a selection that goes beyond a salad with tomato, onion, and avocado on it. It’s open during the week from between 11am and 7:30pm and is mainly a lunch and early dinner place and very popular with the area’s office and embassy workers

Located on the road that goes towards Nyarutarama, If you want some good food and wine and don’t mind splashing out a bit (not crazy expensive but expensive for Kigali) then I’d recommend it. Great service, food and a nice view from their balcony
