The Story of

Mama Lulu

Mama Lulu was a magical woman from the island of Lamu, Kenya. A force of nature who could weave a tale taller than a beanstalk and transport you into the depths of imagination and fun you didn't even think possible. She loved to chat dreams as she cooked, hosted, and entertained people far and wide in her humble home. A widowed mother of five, she raised more than just her children, she raised hope in the lives of so many people who got to call her a friend. 

But most importantly, Lulu was our grandmother. 

She taught us how to love, how to nurture the human spirit, and how to revel in the joy of life against all odds. May you find your source of joy with us as you read, dine and drink in her legacy. Love, Wafa and Amirah.

Lulu & The Beanstalk is what happens when filmmakers open a bar, a cosy dreamy spot that feels like your own little world to escape into. You can do that with a book, a glass of hand crafted mezcal, a slice of elevated comfort food or all of the above.
