Botanika

Burundi


Located in the Hotel Botanika, this excellent restaurant offers delightful dining under the bougainvillea-coloured courtyard trestles. The food is a fusion of modern French and Moroccan with African accents and includes delights such as rabbit glazed in honey, and lamb tajines. Understandably popular with the french expat community.
