In Kenya people embrace revolutions. They take ideas and run
with them. For instance in late 2011,2012 and 2013 lounges sprung up in the
capital. People appreciated relaxing and listening to slow music under the
dimmed lights. This saw the birth of lounges like Alabaster lounge, Brew Bistro
lounge, Secrets lounge among others. Something else is brewing, The Champagne
Bar. Champagne is a luxury drink that’s great especially when it is sparkling
in a tall glass. It is a drink reserved for the crème de la crème of society.
Closer home a few champagne bars have sprung up in a bid to cater for the upper
class in society. Men with briefcases come here after a long day of work. It is
a place to meet with friends or chill out between destinations while on
holiday. There are a few champagne bars that have become all the rage.
The Champagne Bar. Sankara. Nairobi.
It was launched on Friday, 3rd August, 2012. It
is located on the 7th floor of this luxurious hotel. It is
definitely a place to kick back, relax and enjoy the smooth champagne bubbles
kiss your tongue. In this bar there are champagnes, champagne cocktails and a
vast selection of the finest single Malt whiskies. In their portfolio is Moet
and Chandon, Taittinger Brut Reserve, Hibiki (A Japanese Malt whisky) and
others whose names I can’t pronounce. These are carefully selected by the
experts so you can’t go wrong with this. The ambience in this place is to die
for. For a moment you feel like you are in Vegas. The seats are made of palm wood
that is hand carved. You can view the skyline especially at night. The view is
to die for with all the lights. There is also a lounge where people can relax
after long days at work. The bar opens from 6pm to 1am and the dress code is
smart.For more info go here.

their own signature sauces. This is one of the best experiences ever. It has a
cocktail bar. This place is beautiful. And did you know that this is the only
bar in East Africa that has been endorsed and credited by Veuve Clicquot. So
you can imagine the many types of champagne from Veuve that are served. I think
this is one of the best places I have been to. I loved the martinis and they
even have ice-cream cocktails. I wish I had a sweet tooth. This is a place that
excited me. I would definitely love to work here. The experience was something
id love to redo.
Kenyans are coming of
