Have you never had a lunch date with Reptiles? You may be missing out! I won't judge though, that much ;)
One-of-a-kind dining experience at Animojo where you're sharing the same space with pythons, tegus, taratulas, beetles, scorpions, and more. They all reside in their own terrariums, so don't worry they won't steal your food although they may wink at you.
Try their African/Jamaican items on the menu, they are good! If you feel daunted, they have Asian selections for a more local flavour.
- Jamaica Jerk Chicken Wings
- Bodrum Hummus & Crudites (vegetables plate)
- Piri Piri Chicken, and
- Ethiopian Minced Beef Stew (Sega Wat is the name I believe)
LOVE the spice and kick! Tons of flavour and heat in a spiced way not a burn-your-tongue way. Sauces from Pirir Piri and Sega Wat go well with the multigrain rice and it was spicy! Glad we got the hummus and veggie plate to balance out the heat.
Overall, a really good meal at a reasonable price in a fun environment. This place offers a great ambience for kids to learn about reptiles and bugs of East Africa. Some of the staffs are reptile/insect-enthusist and they are more than happy to tell you more about these animals when they have time. A great location for birthday parts where kids can have fun getting curious and excited seeing the snakes and lizards. The taratulas, beetles, scorpions, etc are by the hallway inside the restaurant. It makes you feel like you're dining in a small reptile zoo.
Tucked away in Central, Animojo offers East African comfort food with an earthy interior of a small little tree hut you're sitting in. If my friend hadn't brought me here, I'd have never found this place easily. They also sell a selection of art pieces handmade by Kenya, Madagascar, and Tanzania people in Africa to raise awareness of the place. I came here in early May during my trip to Hong Kong and I'm glad I came here. read more
