Livingstone Beach Restaurant


After the giant tortoise odyssey (and I guess I owe you some more pictures of the old guys) I began my trip around Stone Town by eating at the famous Livingstone Beach Restaurant. It has quickly become one of my all-time favorite spots, even though I spent a grand total of around an hour there. It's located in the building that housed the old British Consulate and thus at times people like David Livingstone (for whom it it named) and Richard Francis Burton passed through there. The Burton connection was especially cool because I was reading his account of travelling in East Africa. It's got a great location on the beach, good food (can't beat the barracuda) and live music a few nights a week.
