KENCHIC INN

Today, after finishing up the work for the CAT study, I went to town with my friend Stanley for lunch. I was hungry like a lion by the time we got to Kenchic. It took my about 1hr to get from KNH to town on the bus!!! (it probably would have been a 5-10min drive in the absence of a jam). Kenchic is a chain restaurant…the closest I can compare it to is El Pollo Rey in Dominican Republic (if you know it). As for US establishments, it’s not really like KFC. It’s not really like McDonald’s.…I dunno. Kenchic Inn’s closest relative I know is El Pollo Rey, and that’s the end of the story.

I still can’t get used to Kenyan fries…I don’t know what kind of oil they use, but it’s just not the same…but more than that, the lack of Ketchup is what really does me in. They have tomato sauce instead. As far as I’m concerned, it’s lacking color, consistency, and sugar, and it kind of dribbles down the sides of the fries rather than being of the consistency that can be sufficiently scooped onto the fry.

Hmmm…speaking of chakula (food) some Phad Thai would be really good right now...but this mango will suffice just fine.

I would also recommend trying hibiscus tea.
