President Uhuru Kenyatta’s only daughter, Ngina Kenyatta, entered the list of young entrepreneurs in the country’s restaurant industry on May 5, 2018.
Ngina opened the Green Experience, a premium and exclusive restaurant on the family’s tea estate in Lari, Kiambu county.
In the 1980s, this was purportedly President Uhuru Kenyatta’s residence.
She held a private ceremony to celebrate the opening of the fine restaurant, which was attended by family members, including KICC chief executive Nana Gecaga.
The KICC chief executive lauded the restaurant for the landscape as well as the instructive tour of the tea farm and insights into the industry in an Instagram post.
“So yesterday I got to be part of #TheGreenExperience which is an afternoon spent at a breathtaking location where you are first educated and able to sample all the special varieties of teas now being grown in Kenya… then treated to a 5-course meal each paired with a specific wine (for those of you that don’t drink you have wonderful juices and other beverages),” the post read.
The Green Experience is a part. The cabin offers a panoramic view of the lush greenery that surrounds the restaurant.
The restaurant employs one of Kenya’s newest chefs, as well as a fantastic architectural designer with an exceptional eye for detail, as the host.
“The food is prepared by one of Kenya’s newest and hottest chefs to hit the market and the host who looks after you is again one of Kenya’s latest architectural designers who has not held back on attention to details and your surroundings,” she added.
Ngina, according to Gecaga, is the restaurant’s proprietor.
