In-Depth Information
( 01-524688; hotelmasongola@clcom.net; Livingstone Rd; s/d from MK10,600/15,300;
)
Built in 1886, this tin-roofed, turreted old dame has bags of charm. Choose
between a superior room with an aerial view or one of the brick-red chalets in gardens of
roses and geraniums. Rooms are cosy, clean and have bureaus and bathrooms.
Ndindeya Motel $
( 01-525558; s/d MK2250/2700; )
Off a small turn-off, this powder-blue motel is
charmless with lacklustre staff. Rooms have cold-water showers, stone floors and are
equally lukewarm, but just about adequate for a cheap night. There are lovely gardens at
the back of the property though, which make a nice sundowner spot, and the restaurant
serves tasty portions of grilled meats.

Eating
There are plenty of cheap hole-in-the-wall places around the bus station where you can
pick up plates of chicken and
nshima
or chips for around MK400.

Set inside or outside under an awning this popular roadside expat hangout is a
real sanctuary, with an Afro diner feel to its fuschia-muralled interior. Enjoy a menu span-
ning pizzas, burgers, various curries, chambo and chips, ice cream and brownie and vari-
ous delicious cakes. The large dining room has a notice board with information about the

Dominos $
(Macleod Rd; mains MK1000; 10am-midnight; )
In a leafy part of town,
Domino's is fun for lunch, dinner or sundowners, thanks to its lushly gardened outside
