There are millions of restaurants around the world. More than six hundred thousand of them in the United States alone according to statista.com. No matter how good the food or unusual the location, standing out from the crowd is a challenge. So on April Fool’s Day, a round-up of some of some of the most incredible eating spots in the world seems appropriate. Here are five you’d be foolish not to try.
Ole-Sereni in Nairobi, Kenya
Many restaurants boast great food with killer views. But Waterhole Snack Bar at Ole-Sereni Hotel in Nairobi is literally perched above a killing field. The restaurant occupies a wide deck overlooking Nairobi National Game Park. Living in the 72-square-mile park are some of Kenya’s most famous predators including lions, panthers and hyenas.
On a recent morning, several lionesses were making quick work of a water buffalo they had killed within view of the restaurant. Diners abandoned their own breakfast to devour the spectacle. Make no mistake, this is no safari camp. The Ole Sereni is an established in-town hotel serving business travelers who may never leave Kenya’s capital city during their stay. But for those guests on their way to one of the country’s many wildlife parks, this restaurant provides a healthy taste of what’s to come.
