Nyama choma, or grilled meat, is one of the favorite things to eat in Kenya. It can be many different types of meat, and usually the meat is slow roasted, sliced in front of you on your table, and served with salt, chilies, and kachumbari. In this video we’re taking you on a tour of some of the best nyama choma in Nairobi, Kenya.
Khan has a been a great friend of mine for many years in Nairobi, Kenya. And he recently started Gikosh, an aviation art company. You can check out their stuff on https://www.instagram.com/air.gikosh/ and http://sky-decor.com/
We decided to go on an ultimate Nairobi street food nyama choma (roasted meat tour) of Nairobi, but with a twist. Some of his carpenters and welders dressed in their Gikosh costumes for the occasion, and we first set off the walk about Gikomba Market in Nairobi.
After walking around the market for a while, we stopped at a small spot to eat our first grilled meat - nyama choma. They served grilled beef, and so we ordered a few kgs to snack on. It was overall quite good, and a nice friendly environment.
Total price - 1,000 KES ($9.86)
Kenyatta Market - For many years, Kenyatta Market has been one of my go to places for ready made nyama choma in Nairobi. They always have a huge selection that’s ready to eat when you arrive. The only thing that can be a bit hectic is when all the meat stalls are all trying to get your business at once. Some of the vendors even fight each other for your business. We eventually chose a stall, and ordered up a huge amount of meat. We got a mixed selection, but mostly goat, and a chicken, plus a bunch of Kenyan food side dishes.
Total price - 700 KES ($6.90) per kg
Dagoretti Corner - Final stop on this Kenyan food nyama choma tour was at
Dagoretti Corner and specifically Carol Smart Butchery. This is where we got husted for some meat! A few of the butchers from the slaughterhouse followed us to a nyama choma spot, chose some meat, and sat down to eat with us. But I was totally ok with eat, and they were hilarious and very entertaining!
Total price - 2,000 KES ($19.72)

There is a place near my house call choma Zone, there's a small little area where you can eat or just pick up orders and it is very tiny and then they have a little Club that's Darkly lit with crazy lights and it's full of African people. I had to pick up an order for a guy from Kenya I'm going to have to try it now they have goat stew which sounds amazing. It's in Washington State a lot of people when they think of going out to eat they think of various different Asian Foods maybe Italian or some kind of Hispanic food but a lot of people Overlook how delicious African food is
I can smell the mama choma from my house
I get it they’re poor but you’re never too poor to clean your pots and pans
mark i love how you spoilt those huys with meat three joint its not a joke🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for making my appetite come back
I see this video is a few years ago. can anyone who has visited recently confirm if the vendors in this video is still there? I"m taking notes and planning. thanks
As a Kenyan this brings back so many memories of Nairobi 🇰🇪
What army would eat this?
My late Godmother’s 🇺🇸fave spot for nyama choma was Dagoretti Corner – always loved it when she took me there years ago. Thanks for the tour and memory 🙏🏾💕🇰🇪🇺🇸
That Kenyatta Market food spread made me actually tear up! What a feast! 💕🇰🇪🇺🇸
Imagine going out to eat and when you’re food comes out the chefs eats it with you 😂😂😂 that’s so wrong but hilarious Mark you better than me
Are we going to mention the lady with tumeric covered all over her face?
how about the kenya space programm, does it succeed ?
You should have gone into the slaughter house, you just get the gear
Aaai majamaa acheni kudandia food ya mark bana ,ata hawajakula na mnafanyanga kazi kwa butchery hamna tabia,badala muache wageni wakule mnakula chakula yao ?? What a shame
I also envy you. I would love to be at the tables of your travels, but fear parasites.
How can you travel all over the world and drink the water, eat the foods of everywhere and anywhere and never get sick? I am part Kenyan, really I am part everybody-so this is not prejudice this is logic. Are there shots or protective herbs, what do you do to protect your tummy, your immunity?
