Although damage was costly, Kevin Onyona has looked on the brighter side and turned the shutdown into an opportunity for improvement and renovation of areas of the restaurant that required enhancement โ giving Swahili Village a fresh look. Like the phoenix of Greek mythology, Swahili Village is now rising from the ashes with renewed vision, capacity, and vigor.
The improvement includes the installation of a Lainox Naiboo Combi-oven, the โWorldโs Smartest and Most Versatile Cooking Platformโ with apps and a high-tech interface similar to current technology found in the most advanced mobile phone. The oven has efficient and instant execution of the perfect cooking times for a variety of Swahili Villageโs recipes.

A courtship with a distinctly American style of packaging that has become the true definition of Swahili Village Culture. Bold Authentic African Cuisine.
