Meet the friendly vendors who make this experience truly special. Roll up your sleeves and step into a local kitchen where you'll use traditional tools like the mbuzi (coconut scraper), ungo (sieve), and kinu (mortar and pestle) to prepare classic dishes like ugali, pilau, or chapati. The class is designed for everyone, from seasoned cooks to beginners, and you'll leave with recipes to try at home.

This immersive setup ensures you get an authentic taste of Tanzanian life.
