The roast goat meat is served up as a kind of social lubricant, often aided by copious amounts of the local beer.<\/p>\n<p>Victoria Obiakor \u2013 Director of Sales and Marketing at Kigali Marriott, observed that the concept was brought up as a way to bring the region together at the hotel, as the Nyama Choma is well known in East Africa.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur main thing at Kigali Marriott is not just international guests but also what we can bring to the market for residents just to come on a Saturday and enjoy. For Rwf 20 000 per person, you can eat meat, have promotional drinks and kids get a 50% discount,\u201d says Obiakor.<\/p>\n<p>At its Iriba Bar &#038; Terrace, Kigali Marriott offers a fun-filled Saturday where families and friends can gather for the Nyama Choma Grill &#038; Chill experience and have an entertaining evening with DJs and a live band to cap off their week.<\/p>\n<p>You will find guests hanging out for hours, enjoying beer after beer, and when the meat comes, slowly digging in piece by piece.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy family often comes here at Marriott &#8211; this is our fourth time to attend the Nyama Choma Grill &#038; Chill experience. It\u2019s very friendly and lots of families come over. It\u2019s an authentic Nyama Choma with style,\u201d said Diana Hodson, a guest from Kigali Marriott.<\/p>\n<p>The newest and most exciting addition to Kigali Marriott\u2019s Nyama Choma Grill &#038; Chill experience is its extravagant Mo\u00ebt &#038; Chandon Champagne bar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can go anywhere for the Nyama Choma, but if you come to Marriott, you will have it at a good price and with style. This time, it\u2019s even better with the introduction of the Mo\u00ebt Champagne Bar, which for me is another level of high-class establishment; where you are served something purely African like the Nyama Choma but you get to have the Champagne too. It\u2019s simply original,\u201d added Hodson. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy experience at the Nyama Choma Grill &#038; Chill Experience is\u2026.well, the Nyama Choma is simply amazing,\u201d gushed one of Diana\u2019s children, Myra Hodson.<\/p>\n<p>The concept at the Iriba Bar &#038;Terrace is a buffet set-up with various meat, fruits, vegetables and many other delights to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to food at the Kigali Marriott, guests are spoiled for culinary choices that extend beyond the buffet. If you haven&#8217;t yet experienced the Nyama Choma Grill &#038; Chill, be sure to try it at the hotel, every last Saturday of the month,<\/p>\n<p>Having opened its doors in Kigali City Centre in 2016, the Kigali Marriott Hotel is a subsidiary of Marriott International which is present in over 131 countries with more than 7,000 hotels globally.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29958 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/14-ry6b5997.jpg\" alt=\"Guests at Kigali Marriott Hotel, Diana Hodson and her family, say they thoroughly enjoyed the Nyama Choma experience.\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29960 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/01-ry6b5916.jpg\" alt=\"The Nyama Choma, Swahili for \u2018roast meat\u2019, is eaten on special occasions, such as a weekend family get-together\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29964 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/03-ry6b5931.jpg\" alt=\"The tasty Nyama Choma is served by a brigade of professional chefs endowed with experience from the region\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29965 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/11-ry6b5991.jpg\" alt=\" The roasted meat is served up as a kind of social lubricant, often aided by copious amounts of the local beer\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29961 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/12-ry6b5978.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29962 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/13-ry6b6013.jpg\" alt=\"While at the Nyama Choma, guests get to enjoy the performance of a live band &amp; celebrities\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29963 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/08-ry6b5947.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29966 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/10-ry6b5966.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"spip-document spip-document-29967 aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/en-images.igihe.com\/jpg\/whatsapp_image_2019-06-21_at_4.44.30_pm.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s the type of meat you can remember for a lifetime, the type of meat that builds memories and creates lasting impressions.
