Our story
A family house on the water.
A family-owned lakeside restaurant on Nam Lolwe, run by a local family born and raised in Kisumu. A place to gather, away from home and work.
Eighty per cent of our team are local, most of them women from the area. We built this to give back to the community and the lake around us.
Wine is our thing. Nowhere on this water poured a proper glass of white or a decent rosé, so we did — and priced it to enjoy.
