eatout

Of the five restaurants in the Meikles Hotel, this was the only one we tried (other than a drink at the Explorer’s Bar). It is the more casual of the two big restaurants. The dress code is described as “smart casual”, which in our case meant jeans and a nice shirt for my husband and my trusty “never wrinkles no matter how long the flight is” travel dress for me.

The restaurant serves light snacks during the day and an incredible buffet at night with everything from sadza – a staple food of Zimbabwe whose closest cousin is grits – to prime rib. And the dessert table! Just walking past added at least three inches to my hips.

Waiters in starched white uniforms sashed with sky blue hover nearby to provide your every wish. This was the first place we sampled Zimbabwean wine. Not quite on par with the South African, but it was very nice, as was the view over the floodlit roof garden from our window seat.Click here for the latest information on the Pavilion Restaurant in Harare

There is a section on the eatout website that is strictly dedicated to the Restaurants in Harare as well as another section that is dedicated to the Restaurants in Bulawayo.

Another page on this site is where you can find all the coffee shops in Harare. The team at eatout is on a search for the romantic restaurants in Zimbabwe at the moment.

The restaurant owners lunch that was held recently at Millers Restaurant in Harare was a great opportunity for the restaurant owners in harare to have  a one on one chat with the eatout team.

I am sitting on a beautiful day in the capital city of Harare at the the Soparnos Coffee Shop and I can’t believe my luck – FREE WIRELESS internet.  I ordered a cappuccino and had to promtly advise the man behind the counter that he should watch our training video online – which I am sure went right over his head – but who wants a Mountain of froth on their cappuccino? anyone!!!

I recently received an email from a user asking for Halaal restaurants and we are so pleased to be able to add Sopranos under this category.

I found details of Shangri La Restaurant on the eatout website. You can rate and review them here. A great place to get good food value.  A recent review on there says the following :

This is a great place. It is set in a good location, Enterprise road, Harare. There is a cool vibe, lots of different people from all social groups of the nation. A great place to set up a million dollar business deal, get out of trouble with the law, have an awesome afternoon with friends or even suitable for a romantic date. Shangri-La is a place for everyone. Best plan is: go on a Friday afternoon with some mates eat some delicious meals, sit outside in the sun drinking local beer and imported Cape wines, stay as late as possible and enjoy…

Definitely the Pekin duck and Crispy duck. Its the only proper duck in the nation and the ducks are all organically reared, Pekin duck imported from South Africa. World class!

Robyn from the Indaba Book Cafe and Sandwich Bar was up in Harare to welcome their new chef all the way from Australia. I think that Bulawayo residents will be very fortunate to have the variety of cuisine available increase.  There is no shortage of good wholesome food in Bulawayo restaurants. Kimba should add a great new fresh dimension to the available cuisine – this chef didn’t want to risk not finding his favourite herbs so he has brought along his own supply of seeds to start up his own supply of herbs at the restaurant.

Indaba also had their first book signing on Friday – we look forward to hearing how it went and some photos…

Eatout now has a great category which includes all the popular restaurants on the site. The popularity is determined by the number of clicks on every restaurants webpage and the current top 10 most visited restaurants on the website are:
