The St. Regis Al Mouj Muscat Resort proudly unveils the reimagined Karibu, its signature restaurant inspired by the legendary Spice Route. True to its Swahili name meaning “Welcome,” Karibu invites diners to embark on an evocative journey through flavors and cultures that connect Zanzibar, India, and Oman — the heart of this historic trade passage.

With an elegant and vibrant setting, Karibu’s refreshed menu pays homage to centuries of culinary exchange. Each dish reflects the essence of the spice trade, weaving together bold flavors, fragrant blends, and timeless recipes. Guests are treated to a sensory exploration where every plate tells a story of heritage and hospitality.

Throughout the week, Karibu celebrates themed culinary nights that highlight the region’s diverse traditions. Curry Nights on Tuesdays feature seven varieties of rich, comforting curries accompanied by fresh salads, rice, and breads. Wednesdays bring “Meat Me at Karibu,” an indulgent grill experience with premium cuts marinated in signature spice blends.

Seafood lovers can delight in Omani Grill Seafood Nights every Thursday, showcasing freshly caught local favorites — from Omani lobster to yellowfin tuna, expertly charcoal-grilled and infused with authentic Omani spices. Fridays burst with rhythm and flavor during Zanzibari Nights, where guests enjoy aromatic barbecues, coconut rice, and live Zanzibari music that evoke East Africa’s coastal spirit.
