Named for the year that explorer David Livingstone famously rendezvoused with journalist Henry Morton Stanley in Africa, the restaurant’s sustainable and seasonal menus showcase the chef’s talents and passions against a spectacular backdrop of lush wilderness.
Guests can take breakfast on the lawn overlooking a watering hole where wildlife comes to refresh each morning or savor a traditional afternoon tea on the terrace with a selection of freshly baked scones, tarts and dainty sandwiches.
When night falls, a sophisticated dinner menu features international favorites and local delicacies such as Zambezi River crayfish and venison loin served with vegetables fresh from the hotel garden, complemented with fine wines.
