HOW I TAKE MY COFFEE
WITH ERIC WAINAINA
E
ric Wainaina is a popular
Kenyan musician, caring
husband, father and lover
of good food. His notable
releases include Kenya
Only, Nchi Ya Kitu Kidogo and Selina.
The way he takes his coffee reveals
that he is bold and unafraid to
experiment with new flavours both
in the kitchen and in his music.
How do you take your morning
coffee?
I like a good strong Dormans brew. I
take that with toast, scrambled eggs
and if I’m feeling good, some bacon.
What’s your creative process like?
I sit on the porch with a guitar and
try come up with a melody and
lyrics. Sometimes one comes before
the other. There is a lot of rewriting.
the day starting with an
espresso in the morning, but not
necessarily after meals. I generally
stay away from it after late night
dinners.
Where did you learn how to cook?
What’s your favourite pastry?
I don’t treat myself to pastries as
much as I should but I sure like a
good Danish.
What’s your ideal way to take coffee
after a meal?
From my mum. She always stressed
that she didn’t want us to end up
marrying someone just because we
didn’t know how to make a cup of
coffee! By the time I could see over
the sink, I was doing dishes. By the
time I could see over the stove, I was
cooking.
I drink a lot of coffee throughout
