Radisson Blu Hotel Nairobi, Upper Hill

In today’s world, hospitality is no longer just about serving good food and drinks. It’s about creating spaces where people connect, unwind, and celebrate life’s moments in memorable ways. This Easter, Radisson Blu Hotel Nairobi, Upper Hill invites you to something more than just a barbecue. We’re curating an experience. In partnership with East African Breweries PLC (EABL) and their premium gin brand Tanqueray No. TEN, the Easter Sunday Barbecue will be a celebration of craft, flavour, and connection — blending exceptional culinary moments with bespoke cocktail artistry. “As chefs, we’re always striving to create meals that linger in memory, not just on the plate,” says Executive Chef Wayne Walkinshaw. “This Easter, the menu is bold, flavour-driven, and designed to be shared — grilled meats, global accompaniments, indulgent desserts — and with Tanqueray No. TEN, we’ve added a bright, citrus-forward layer to the experience.” Guests can expect a lively atmosphere filled with music, laughter, and flavour. Tanqueray No. TEN will offer welcome cocktails, live cocktail demos, and mixology sessions for guests interested in the finer side of gin. Walkinshaw adds, “We wanted to capture the spirit of gathering — whether it’s family coming together, friends reconnecting, or someone treating themselves to a peaceful afternoon. It’s casual, festive, and deeply intentional.” The Easter Sunday Barbecue will take place on Sunday, 20th April 2025, from 12:30 PM to 4:00 PM at Larder Restaurant, with activities for children, live entertainment, and a laid-back ambiance for all to enjoy. To reserve a spot, call 0709 810 000. At its core, this event is about thoughtful hospitality — where every element, from the grill to the garnish, is part of something bigger. A celebration of the season. A moment to remember. #RadissonBluUpperhill #EasterExperience #GuestFirst #HospitalityLeadership #StrategicPartnerships #CulinaryExcellence #EasterInNairobi

She has not only witnessed the evolution of the workplace culture—but actively helped shape it. Her defining moment came when she had to lead the HR department solo during her manager’s extended absence.

The Power of Mentorship: Anneirene’s growth has been fueled by the strong mentors in her life. From her mother and sister to her manager Ms. CHARITY GACHAU, and the men in her circle—her father, brother, and male mentors—each has played a vital role in building her character, resilience, and professional confidence. Their guidance, networks, and unwavering belief in her have shaped who she is today. Let’s celebrate Anneirene’s journey, her leadership, and the mentors who lit the path.
