We had the great BOMA dinner buffets this past sunday. The restaurant is titled BOMA-FLAVORS OF AFRICA and as we were staying at AKL, we managed to find time for a sitdown meal, and one that would introduce us to African cuisine. Nearly every flavor we tasted was inviting! Our favorites were the variety of spiced hummus and breads, the shaved watermelon with ginger salad, marvelous pumpkin soup, the nut encrusted salmon as well as the flank steak with that luscious barbeque sauce we had been smelling at the hotel for days since BOMA is open air to the lounge and lobby above, and the desserts, all of them. Yes that heavenly mocha zebra dome was wonderful!
This was the most welcome and satisfying meal of our stay. We HIGHLY recommend BOMA! On a side note, we had been eating "convenience" foods at the parks all week and couldn't wait to get away from french fry overkill. While dining at BOMA, within one minute from different parts of the restaurant, 2 separate plates loaded with the kid-friendly-american-fare (spaghetti, chicken fingers, etc...)they offer at BOMA for the tots or the less adventurous,went crashing to the floor! We joked, since we were thrilled with our plates full of African delicasies, that the plates themselves must be rebelling against being loaded with dull spaghetti at this rich buffet!
Unfortunately, the day we tried BOMA for it's breakfast, we were just too late to be seated. Hopefully next time, as well as a return to the dinner buffets! [img]graemlins/tasty.gif[/img]
