Ocean Basket and ABALOBI: Empowering Small-Scale Fishers with Sustainable Fishing In the Western Cape, fishermen typically rise early, head out on small boats, and return with their catch. However, they often face the challenge of selling their catch at the harbour for meager prices. Consequently, this situation leaves them without sufficient funds to purchase fuel for the next day or even keep some fish to feed their families.

With so many great restaurants popping up in Nairobi, it’s hard to stand out. My experience in the first weeks of Ocean Basket’s opening at The Oval in Westlands was one to be remembered. 

I love seafood even though i might be allergic to most. I love how they included sushi in addition to their wide array of shellfish platters. All this combined with great service, tasty cocktails and the seaside ambiance make for the ultimate date-night. 

I paired my sushi with a lovely dry rose after which we proceeded to the lounge that offers privacy, curious sheesha or hookah combinations and special cocktails.

I would recommend Ocean Basket for any date-night or family dinner. There are so many great options to chose from that can be enjoyed by any crowd and get everyone more than filled up.

Remember, drinking is always fun when it’s done responsibly!

Cheers,

Jer

Who can pass up an offer of amazing seafood? Definitely not me.

After a couple of strawberry daiquiris, heinekens and the seafood platters I wasn’t mad my brother chose Ocean Basket for his birthday celebration.

Ocean Basket is a South African restaurant chain which has made its way down to Lagos and positioned its self as the best sea food restaurant in town (if there are any decent ones around).

We already had a seating area upstairs waiting for our party and after we got seated, dinner was ready to start.

The great thing is there are different sitting areas. You could choose to sit outside, downstairs or upstairs. Whichever way tickles your fancy.

A couple of seafood platters, strawberry daiquiris and beers later, everyone was happy and chatting away.

I like how laid back and friendly it is. From paper place mats to wooden furniture; Ocean Basket has the perfect ambiance for a friendly meal.

The setting with the sea breeze drifting in further helps you to remember that Ocean Basket is all about the yummy seafood. The meals were tasty and came out time and even though my daiquiri was a little too sweet,  I enjoyed it.

Are you a seafood lover and looking for a restaurant that focuses just on that? Then pay a visit to Ocean Basket and order something.
