PIZZAIOLO CLUB HOUSE
Read moreThe Pizzaiolo Club House has become the icon of the Haramous district, the meeting place for regulars. A relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It is good to drop in to change your mind on a deckchair around the pool. Nasser, the owner, is brilliantly continuing the adventure launched in 1988 by his mentor and predecessor, a chef of French origin. He offers a varied cuisine, alternating Italian dishes (pasta, risottos, pizzas), meats (duck and excellent burgers), seafood and gourmet salads. He has a branch, Allo Pizza, in the city centre.
LES SEPT FRÈRES
Read moreThe specialty of the site, which has made its reputation throughout the city, is the Yemeni fish moukbassa. Cooked in the oven (it melts in the mouth…), the fish is accompanied by hot cakes and dried fruit purée, honey and bananas. A delight! The decor, however, is very dépouillé, rather ugly when the restaurant is desert.
LA CHAUMIÈRE
Read moreLa Chaumière is a very popular place with Westerners for its pub-style bar, but people also come here for lunch or dinner. The atmosphere is rather family. The restaurant offers French and Asian cuisine. The "wok" specialties, to be personalized according to one's taste, are very appreciated. The service, according to affluence, can be a little long. The terrace under the arcades, when it is not too hot, is one of the most pleasant of the place. Air-conditioned interior room. A historical and unavoidable address in Djibouti.
LE SANTAL
Read moreThe Santal has a small reputation for lovers of Indian cuisine and... pizzas. Biryani, chicken tikka, chicken tandoori, naan... the great classics are well represented and appreciated by a clientele of regulars. The thin crust pizzas, cooked over a wood fire, offer an alternative to those who are less fond of spicy flavours. The place is simple and doesn't look like much from the outside, but the atmosphere inside is friendly, the dishes are copious and the prices correct. The room is air-conditioned of course. The restaurant does not serve alcohol.
