Popular boy band Sauti Sol on Thursday treated a group of their fans to free lunch at a local eatery in the city centre.

Sauti Sol went for lunch at Kenchic – a food restaurant best known for their fries and deep fried chicken – after a band rehearsal and an interview at Alliance Francaise.

The singers have a sentimental attachment to the eatery. It was where they used to have lunch before their rise to fame, and during hard times, shared a plate of fries to save money.

“This far we’ve come, it is only by the grace of God. ?. Almost 11 years ago, we used to come to this Kenchic next to KEMU right past Alliance Francaise after practice. Sometimes we could share a plate because we had to save atleast an extra Kes.20 each for traffic rush hours. Especially @bienaimesol used to suffer bus fare hikes the most as he was from Rongai.”

Group member Bien Aime became emotional and decided to buy lunch for everyone in the queue.

Kenchic is a self-service restaurant.

“Today after our band rehearsals and an interview with @cnn at Alliance, we decided to go have lunch at the joint. This brought back deep memories,@bienaimesol got so emotional he decided to buy lunch for everyone in the queue. BARAKA ZAKE HAZIKWISHI#KulikoJana”

Sauti Sol have just returned to the country from their ‘Live and die in Afrika’ tour in Rwanda.
