The kitchen

Cooked in small pots, to order

Nothing sits in a warmer. The list below is what the kitchen makes; ask what is on the stove this week.

Rice & mains

Wali na mchuzi

Pilau ya nyama house favourite

Basmati cooked down in beef stock with cumin, cardamom and cinnamon until every grain is brown and separate.

Beef stew & potatoes

Nyama na viazi — beef and potato simmered slowly with onion and tomato until the sauce turns thick and dark.

Chicken stew

Browned on the bone, then finished in a tomato and onion sauce. Mild as standard, hot on request.

Beans in coconut vegan

Maharagwe ya nazi — a deep pot of beans cooked soft in coconut milk with greens stirred through at the end.

Sukuma wiki & kachumbari

Greens fried down with onion, and a sharp raw salad of tomato, red onion, coriander and lime alongside.

Staples & snacks

Vitafunwa

Ugali

Steamed white maize meal, turned firm enough to tear and scoop with. The plate is not Kenyan without it.

Chapati

Rolled thin, coiled, fried on a dry pan — soft, layered, and made to be pulled apart. By the piece or by the ten.

Mandazi & mahamri

Fried dough, lightly sweet, scented with cardamom and coconut. Best eaten warm, in the first hour.

Samosa — beef or vegetable

Sambusa, folded by hand and fried crisp. Made by the tray for parties and church gatherings.

Chai ya tangawizi

Kenyan ginger tea boiled with milk, carried in a flask. It comes with every party order.

A single tray of beef pilau — Pilau ya nyama — one portion

Four sealed trays of beef stew with potatoes — Beef stew, sealed for the road

A large pot of beans simmering in a coconut sauce with greens — Beans in coconut, straight off the stove

Flavours

Vanilla, chocolate, pineapple, strawberry, marble

Fresh fruit goes on top whenever it is in season and worth eating.

Notice

Three days, or a week for colour work

Colour matching, tall tiers and heavy piping need the extra days. Ask early for a weekend.

Hours & delivery

The kitchen runs Sunday through Friday and rests on Saturday for the Sabbath. Everything else in the city, we come to.

Ordering

Three messages and it is done

Tell us what you want

The dishes, how many people, the day, and your district. A photo helps if it is a cake.

We send the price

You get the total and a delivery window back. Pay by transfer beforehand, or cash at the door.

We cook and come

Food leaves hot and sealed, cakes travel boxed — or collect it yourself from District VII.

Sharon · Nyumbani means "at home"

Six thousand kilometres from Nairobi, the same pot

“Every baking experience is a learning journey.”

Sharon started Nyumbani Vibes Foods the way most good kitchens begin — cooking for friends who missed home, then for their friends, then for anyone who asked. Today it is pilau on a Friday, a birthday cake on a Sunday, and trays of food for whoever is hosting. Kenyan, Hungarian, or simply hungry: there is a place for you at the table.

Pages worth opening

Cakes, iced by hand

Sizes, flavours, how far ahead to order, and the gallery in full. One kilo serves eight to ten.

Good to know

Before you order

How much notice do you need?

A day for food. Three days for a cake, or a week if you want a specific colour, a tall cake or a lot of piping. Party trays: as early as you can, especially for a Sunday.

Can I order for a Saturday?

No — Saturday is kept as the Sabbath, so there is no cooking or delivery that day. Friday evening or Sunday works well instead, and food for a Saturday event can be delivered on Friday.

What does it cost?

It depends on the dish and the number of portions, so every order is quoted. Send your list and the total comes back the same day.

Can you cook for a party?

Yes — birthdays, baby showers, graduations, church and community events. Food arrives in trays that hold their heat, with serving spoons. Tell us the headcount and we will build the menu with you.

Is there vegetarian food?

Yes. Beans in coconut, sukuma wiki, kachumbari, vegetable samosa, chapati and ugali are all meat-free, and the beans are vegan. Say so when you order and the pans are kept separate.

How hot is the food?

Mild as it comes — Kenyan cooking is spiced rather than fiery. Ask for pilipili on the side if you want heat.

Allergies

This is a home kitchen where wheat, dairy, eggs and coconut are in daily use, so a trace-free plate cannot be promised. Tell us your allergy before ordering and you will get an honest answer about whether we can cook for it.
