Best Vegan Zanzibar Mix

This was my favorite place to eat in Zanzibar. The house specialty called the Zanzibar Mix was vegan, very inexpensive (3000Tsh/2USD), prepared fresh in front of us, and absolutely delicious. The owners are lovely and chatted with us as they made the food. This is a tiny place and easy to miss, but very worth seeking out. They have a very basic set-up (a few plastic chairs and tiny coal stove) so do not expect a full on restaurant, but excellent food and service at a great value. Take away is also possible.

Pros: Excellent food, Good value, Friendly staff
