Sunday is often the day most people use to go to church, and spend time with their family and friends. You just want to relax and gather your strength before you start your work week on Monday. One great activity you can get into one day or even make a Sunday tradition is going for brunch. Good food is sure to make any Sunday better. With the growing brunch culture, there are various places in Nairobi one can get affordable and worthwhile brunch offers. Here are a couple of my picks.
