The Restaurant
With the tantalising marriage between African fusion and contemporary cuisine, a visit to Lilayi’s
restaurant ensures an unforgettable experience. Dishes are prepared using only the freshest
produce - tender venison from Lilayi Game Farm whilst organic herbs and vegetables are sourced
from the Miller Family Farm. The in-house wine cellar boasts over 120 wines which have been handpicked
to enhance your dining experience.
Lilayi Lodge is proud to have a team of talented chefs and dedicated waiters, some of whom have
been at the lodge for over 20 years. We are committed to ensuring that all visits to Lilayi are unique
and personal. The Lodge is nestled amongst 650 hectares of unspoiled woodland, home to over 25
different species of mammals and 300 birds. Providing each of our visitors with a special African experience.
"The food is AMAZING! You won't believe the quality of the dishes here. Absolutely gold class. The presentation, the taste, and the wine pairings are second to none. Without a doubt the best meal you will ever eat in Zambia, possibly all of Africa."

Wine at Lilayi
Ranging from light Sauvignon Blanc and fruity Chenin Blanc to the deep, full flavours of the Bordeaux style blends; guests will be thrilled by Lilayi's extensive wine selection stored in our in-house wine cellar. We believe that the stemware and service of wine is as important as the wines themselves which is why we select only the best for our guests' experience. We have had the priviledge of hosting wine makers and estate owners from around the world in our restaurant which has made food and wine pairing experiences a regular at Lilayi Lodge. If you are a lover of fine wines then allow us to create your perfect dining experience right in the heart of Africa. At Lilayi Lodge we are dedicated to ever enhansing our guests wine experience.
"There comes a moment on a journey when something sweet, something irresistible and charming as wine raised to thirsty lips, wells up in the traveller's being."
