Canadian Couple Tries Halal Restaurant In Nairobi Kenya 🇰🇪/ CJ's Halal Food Review

Рет қаралды 35,016

Күн бұрын

For date night this week we are trying CJ's at the Village Market in Nairobi, Kenya. According to YOU guys this restaurant has some of the best Halal food in town so we had to review it!
Before talking about the food at CJ's, I want to give a special mention to their mocktails. Those were simply amazing 10/10.
Everything at CJ's is 100% Halal certified, something we did not know before going there. We started with some very good samosas and spring rolls as our appetizer. That plate was HUGE. Then we got a medium size Mexican pizza and of course, my personal favorite meal, chicken and beef fajitas.
This restaurant in Nairobi is the perfect example of being a jack of all trades but a master of none. By this I mean that all the food was good but nothing was phenomenal (Apart from the mocktails of course!). This Halal restaurant is the perfect place to bring a group of friend with different tastes as they serve everything from Mexican food, Kenyan food, Indian food, Italian food and so much more.
Overall we would recommend Cj's restaurant to anyone who doesn't like to chose what they want to eat before going somewhere.
