Built in and around a huge Mugumo (Sacred Fig) tree, the Trout-Tree Restaurant serves char-grilled trout as fresh as it gets… right over the trout ponds. Two troops of Colobus monkeys are resident at the farm and the sound of constantly rushing water from the fish ponds under the restaurant further complement the meal - a full sensory feast.
The washrooms are on terra firma next to the beautifully landscaped entrance and are constructed to four-star standards - with a rustic flair. We know what’s needed when you leave that tour vehicle: first impressions count, as do the second and the third and……
With seating for 60 in cool arboreal splendour, the restaurant offers a three-course meal of home-baked bread, a selection of starters including farm-smoked trout and our trout chowder soup, a choice of trout, beef or vegetarian main course with vegetables, served on a mahogany platter, together with a crisp green salad, followed by mountain fruit salad and tea or coffee. We use only eco-friendly “Chardust” briquettes in our charcoal grills.
Be warned though; there may be one problem associated with your visit to the Trout-Tree – finding the enthusiasm to get back on the road! Our Nairobi contacts are Elsen or John at 0726 281704. E-mail trouttree@wananchi.com
