Oh baby! How’s this for an epic breakfast? . Via Oh baby! How’s this for an epic breakfast?

Via Via Traveller’s Cafe in Kibagabaga introduced their Full English a few months ago and I’ve finally been able to try it. It’s the real deal, folks!
.
Eggs to order, crispy bacon cooked into oblivion just as I requested, excellent sausages, beans, grilled tomato, mushrooms, and toast. It’s a massive meal and I think it’s a bargain at Rwf 8,000.
.
I’m ready to take on the weekend after this!

Two of my Kigali favourites! . One is currently on Two of my Kigali favourites!
.
One is currently on a plane to USA, but you can find the other at Poivre Noir.
.
I think this burger is the best in Kigali and the food at Poivre Noir is just generally awesome. We also shared the grilled veggies with feta which was new to me and it’s a definite winner!
.
If you haven’t been yet, stop what you’re doing and pay them a visit immediately! Well... wait until they open, I suppose.

I joined my friends at Go Kigali city tours and Ku I joined my friends at Go Kigali city tours and Kurema Kuriba Kwiga on a walking tour testing mission that will take in some of the awesome murals found around Kigali.
.
T’was a glorious walk down some beautiful streets I hadn’t ever been on, the artwork was inspiring, and the company was excellent! All was well and then... rain! Trapped for the fourth day in a row! Somehow it’s more fun with friends.
.
Go Kigali has some exciting things on the horizon including this tour so stay tuned for more info!

Sunny Kigali, where have you gone? I woke up this Sunny Kigali, where have you gone? I woke up this morning inside a cloud! I’ve been stranded in rain storms three days in a row! I keep getting soaked (and yet still never remember to bring an umbrella...)!

Where is the dry season? Come on... we all have things to do!

(But I still love you.)
