Lamu Street Food

Lamu, Kenya

You can’t go to Kenya and not try the nyama choma or kuku choma - the grilled street meat. We found this place off the “main street” in the swahili part of town. The meat was marinated in some amazing spice combination and you have a choice of chapati or chips (“fries” in American). The beef kabobs are a mere 25 shillings (around 30 cents) and the chicken is a bit more at 200 shillings. You can’t beat a meal that costs you less than $5 for two people.
