Food, music galore as first ever Pikika Brunch Festival goes down

The first-ever Pikika Brunch festival went down over the weekend as hundreds of foodies, music-lovers and thrill-seekers thronged the Invergara Gardens for an afternoon of music, barbecue and dance.

Organized by Drustar Alliance and Angel Khayusi, the event brought together chefs gathered from a pool of popular online kitchens including HD's Kitchen, The Cherry Tomato and Mulunda's Kitchen.

Guests started arriving as early as 11am on Saturday as Holy Dave (of HD's Kitchen) and his crew made a grand entry before cooking up meals for the entire afternoon.

Mista Dru, DJ M-JAY, DJ Gatmo and DJ Panik kept revelers on their feet as MC Stano kept the hype high and the mood lively.

"The event was basically an ode to local chefs, everyday chefs to come and showcase their culinary skills. The organizers had the option of going for the top city restaurants but instead opted to pick out self-made chefs making a name online,” Holy Dave, the proprietor of HD's Kitchen, said.

“Everyone loves food and this was the perfect opportunity to bring together Nairobians of all walks of life and have them sample the best of what we had to offer from our kitchens.”

He added: "Initially, we were supposed to be five cooks but two couldn't make it owing to other conflicting commitments. All in all, the crowd exceeded our expectations as we had over 600 people trooping to the venue even though we had only anticipated at least 300 people."

The setup, beautifully done by Rubi Events, became one of the event's most talked about features with many revelers commending the look and feel of the venue.

According to the event organisers, Pikika Brunch will be a recurring event and another one is slated for later this year.
