Are Boma and Tusker House pretty much the same resturant?

[Sparty1833]

We are staying at the AKL for our trip. On arrival day, we plan on just staying at the resort and eating dinner at Boma. We also plan to do a Tusker House character meal during our trip. Would eating at both be redundant?

No
They are not the same place. There are some similarities and many differences

We like both - there are some similarities, but also many differences as @Hopefully said

Both are buffets of course and some of the dishes and flavors are similar but the experiences are different enough that they aren't redundant. I wouldn't do them on the same day but have done both in the same week.

perfect thanks!

Are the beer or other adult drinks at Boma worth trying?

I think we may have done a brunch at TH and a Boma dinner on the same day, and we weren't even staying at AKL. Love both restaurants and they're quite different.

As others noted, similarities in flavor but very different experiences. Not sure about beer and cocktails, but can tell you that Boma has an interesting and extensive wine list. We like both eateries, but Boma is a family favorite!

NO! Very different food (though some is the same ...Bobotie, for example, is at both ). Different experiences, atmosphere. I reaaaaally like Tusker House, but I LOOOOOVE Boma! Those soups!!

The are different as others have said, but they have tons of similarities too. I would do breakfast at one and dinner at the other too avoid any semblance of repetition.
