The experience
What makes this different from a standard restaurant night is the teppanyaki setup: a personal chef works at your table, building dishes in front of you one by one, or you can order sushi and sashimi prepared in the traditional way, or go for a spicy Korean casserole cooked right there at your place. The restaurant itself is designed around Japanese calm (rice paper screens, bamboo, sculpted gardens), so the meal is as much about the setting as the food. Dress code is smart casual.
At 9pm, transport moves you to the Nyama Choma Area for the cat dance show. The Safari Cats Dancers & Acrobats is a live performance mixing acrobatics, hybrid dance and raw energy. The operator describes it as a kaleidoscope of colour and excitement. This is not a recording or a demonstration. It's a working show with live performers and the rare, exotic cats that give the act its name.
The full experience runs five hours from start to finish. Pickup and drop-off happen within Nairobi, and an English-speaking guide is included. Soft drinks and alcohol are not included in the price, so you order those separately at the restaurant. Infants can sit on an adult's lap, and the activity suits all fitness levels.
Is this one for you?The five-hour window covers dinner and the show back-to-back, so plan this for an evening when you don't have early plans the next morning. It leaves the rest of your day free for other Nairobi activities.
