To get a pizza or main dish takes an hour.
Food is NOT Italian. Including pizza. Everything is cooked in a Kenyan way, too far away even from an average Italian restaurant.

We had the most exquisite high tea gathering with my family at Cucina Bistro in the Melvic Hotel, located in the heart of Milimani Kisumu, just across from Jumbo Apartments. I must say, it was fit for the King's banquet!
The star of the show was definitely the freshly baked scones, which were absolutely delicious. They were served warm and had just the right amount of crumble. The scones were laced with the most delightful plum jam, which added a rich sweetness to every bite.
And let's not forget the chicken sandwich, which was bursting with flavor. The chicken was perfectly cooked and tender, and the bread was light and fluffy. It was the perfect combination of savory and sweet.
To wash down all of these mouth-watering treats, we had a wide array of Melvic's herbal teas. The hibiscus and green mint teas were particularly refreshing and had a beautiful blend of colors that cooled us down on a hot day.
And as if all of that wasn't enough, we indulged in a scoop of Napoleon ice cream, which was the perfect end to our high tea gathering. The creamy texture and sweet flavor were the perfect complement to the teascones and chicken sandwich.
The laughter and conversation flowed effortlessly, making it a perfect afternoon spent with my loved ones. I can't recommend Cucina Bistro and Melvic Hotel enough for a high tea experience fit for royalty!

Received 2 small pizzas when ordered one large and one medium. The pizza is always delicious but NOT SURE if they have different sizes. Can anyone confirm number of slices/diameter?
