The main street has several butcheries and roasting spots that together form Isiolo's culinary identity. The format is straightforward: you choose your cut of goat or beef by weight, it goes over a charcoal grill, and it comes back to the table with kachumbari (a fresh tomato-and-onion salsa) and ugali. It is the best and most honest meal in town — and in a town that lives on the livestock trade, the quality of the meat reflects that directly. Busy at lunch and again in the early evening.
