Wilderness Mombo has further enhanced its luxurious guest experiences with recent additions including a new fire deck, the creation of a series of intimate dining pods and a walk-in wine cellar. These new areas have expansive views over the surrounding plains and offer exciting options from which to enjoy Mombo’s superb food and wine offering. The new dining pods have been carefully positioned as a natural extension of the camp to maximise the uninterrupted views across the Mombo floodplain. They also offer guests a variety of flexible dining locations, from romantic settings to soulful meals enjoyed with family and friends. This offers the ideal environment to showcase Mombo’s food culture, which is relevant to its surroundings and centred around traditional African ingredients. Collaborating with local farmers and artisans, and thereby reducing the camp’s “foodprint”, Mombo’s menu celebrates locally-sourced heritage ingredients, such as baobab, millet, ditloo (black eyed peas) and morogo, similar to kale. Executive Chef, Tonderai Chipfupi, has introduced new additions to the lunch menu, including a Chief’s Platter and a Lechwe Haven Platter.
