Chez Sonia, Verses, and Munity Bring a Chic Beach Bar Experience to Nairobi

This past Sunday, Nairobi’s social scene was graced with an elegant and unique beach bar experience at Chez Sonia on Peponi Road. Known for its classic French cuisine and extensive selection of wines, Chez Sonia has long been a go-to haven for those who appreciate fine dining in a serene, lush setting. This time, however, it took things up a notch, transforming into a Riviera-inspired retreat that transported guests straight to the Cote d’Azur.

A Sun-Kissed Afternoon of Wine, Fashion, and Music

Dressed in breezy beach-ready ensembles, guests sipped on the best of Provence rosé by Munity, savoring every sip as they indulged in a curated selection of Côte d’Azur delicacies. The ambiance was effortlessly chic – think flowing linens, sunhats, and an air of relaxed sophistication that blended seamlessly with the venue’s enchanting garden setting.

One of the standout moments of the afternoon came courtesy of singer and style icon Habida Moloney, who showcased her new jewelry line, Verses. Fresh off her showcase at Nairobi Fashion Week 2025, Habida captivated the audience with her latest collection. Verses is known for statement handcrafted brass pieces delicately dipped in gold, designed for the woman who appreciates artisanal yet modern elegance. Each piece told a story, blending heritage craftsmanship with contemporary sophistication.

An Afternoon of Jazz and Star Power

As the sun threated to dip behind the Nairobi skyline, the afternoon took on an even more enchanting turn. Habida, never one to shy away from the spotlight, closed the event with a mesmerizing live performance, her soulful vocals intertwining effortlessly with the smooth melodies of jazz maestro Eddie Grey. The fusion of sultry jazz and Habida’s signature sound created an atmosphere of pure magic – an intimate yet electrifying close to an already unforgettable day.

The Chez Sonia Beach Bar experience was more than just an event – it was a celebration of refined living, where fashion, wine, and music came together in perfect harmony. If this is a taste of what’s to come, Nairobi’s social scene is in for an even more dazzling 2025.
