Have you noticed that Asian Cuisines are growing increasingly popular all over the world, not only due in part to the rapid growth in Asian markets, but also to rising interest in bold, spicy flavors and exciting new food service experiences? In a matter of not only 10 years, this region’s culinary delights have gone from being considered a niche cuisine to one of the fastest growing food staples not only in the region but around the world and Nairobi has not been left behind.
The Nairobi Serena Hotel has added a new leaf to its stable- Herbs & Spices, (or simply known as H&S), a new Pan Asian Restaurant that is promising to bring a taste of Asia to the heart of the city. It is promising to redefine the scene of Pan-Asian restaurants in Kenya.
When you walk in, you can’t but help notice the overall design scheme which is contemporary yet simplistic with the interiors featuring natural color palettes and rustic wooden finish while the furniture is functional and comfortable to create a cozy feel. A properly chosen decor truly can help an establishment to attract more customers to your business and influence their appetite. The color shades are welcoming and makes one want to spend more time at this restaurant. With 68 covers, the restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating options; the outdoor seating has a retractable canopy to shelter diners in case of harsh weather condition.
he centerpiece of the restaurant features a mural wall composition of sundry herbs and spices reminiscent of various Asia subcontinents of origin. It subconsciously reminds you that Herbs and spices not only add flavor to your food, but they can help you stay healthy, too. For millennia, herbs and spices have been a key ingredient in Asian cuisine and its quite enticing to see the mural wall with this in the picture.
