Best European food near Goma, North Kivu Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo
Find out what European restaurants to try in Goma. Goma is the capital city of North Kivu province in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is located on the northern shore of Lake Kivu, next to the Rwandan city of Gisenyi. The lake and the two cities are in the Albertine Rift, the western branch of the East African Rift system. Goma lies only 13 to 18 km due south of the crater of the active Nyiragongo Volcano. The recent history of Goma has been dominated by the volcano and the Rwandan Genocide of 1994, which in turn fuelled the First and Second Congo Wars. The aftermath of these events was still having effects on the city and its surroundings in 2010. The city was captured by rebels during the M23 rebellion in late 2012, but has since been retaken by government forces.

The only thing good in Le Chalet is that it is where all foreigners meet on Wednesday for the buffet.But buffet: very average food even if cheap comparing Goma prices standards.Pizza is one of the worst in Goma. Call it a tart but that is not a pizza.Menu is poor. Meat arrived too cooked.Happy hour at the bar cover only few drinks including watery cocktail.Not recommended at all except if you want to meet people from all NGOs and organizations in Goma

Good Indian food. Cold beer. Some of the staff are not trained at all and lazy-kind of sitting around. The chef is more competent in terms of table service than the waitresses. Food is lovely. Except the burger. Good place for a pub-ish night out with a soccer game.
