Boutique on 22

Set on Victoria Avenue in central Harare, the restaurant occupies a house-turned-dining-room that the family has run since the 1990s. The menu reads Italian first, with pasta, snails in garlic butter, and a signature dish of steamed Scottish salmon in whole grain mustard cream. Starters run to duck spring rolls and chicken livers flambéed in port and brandy; mains stretch to oxtail braised in red wine and chutney, and duck confit with an orange and red wine sauce. It is a compact, family-built menu rather than a sprawling one. Next door, Boutique on 22 gives the address a second life as a small stay, with en-suite rooms, a garden, and an outdoor pool for guests staying over after dinner. You can walk from a glass of wine in the bar to a room a few steps away, which keeps the whole address feeling like one household rather than three separate businesses. The result is a single Harare property run across three generations, with food, wine, and a bed all under the same family's watch.
