The House Breakfast is vegetarian and spectacularly yummy. It was in fact the best dish I have had with 9 days travel experience in Uganda. The food was also presented on surprisingly nice crockery and even matching design cutlery. So, a truly surprising gem altogether. Don’t be taken aback by the slightly rough looking tables and chairs. The view over Kazinga Channel where you can see all the wildlife is amazing. You can sit in the garden or on small balcony like platforms for this view. Don’t miss this!
