When done right, authentically cultural street food is mouth-watering and that is the case with this African food truck. Dubbed 'Mama Rocks,' the "funky" business on wheels is said to be "Nairobi's first."
The truck specializes in the 'Gourmet Burger,' offering a number of elaborate takes on it. One example is the Mango Masai Mama, which is "inspired by East Africa with its mango and red bell peppers." The treat is topped with a special chili mango sauce and cheddar cheese.
Mama Rocks focus on sourcing the freshest and most natural ingredients for its burgers. The African food truck has its base at The Alchemist Bar, Parklands Road, Westlands. However, the business also caters events and delivers.
