Today I had their cheeseburger (Ks. 380 &#8211; $5.70) and once again I wasn&#8217;t happy.  The hamburger was well done and very, very dry.  I guess I could have ordered it less cooked, and that would have helped, but I&#8217;m not sure that I want to eat ground beef in Kenya that it&#8217;s not well done.  Not that I have any reason for this prejudice.  The flavor was good enough, but I wouldn&#8217;t order it again.
