Delightful young women shared recipes for three dishes: mokimo, ungali, and beef stew. The chai tea was aromatic as well as delicious and served to enjoy while we cooked. While we prepared the food they readily answered questions about other traditional foods and customs from different regions of Kenya. Their enthusiasm and passion to share their love of Kenya and its food was very evident in our conversation. My husband and I learned much about Kenya and it’s food. We highly recommend this activity as a gateway to your Kenya visit. The meal was delicious!

We always try to schedule a local cooking class during our travels abroad. This was very enjoyable and reasonably priced. A wonderful experience cooking lunch, and interacting with a large Kenyan family. Easy round-trip transportation was furnished from our Nairobi hotel.

It is a standing practice to experience the preparation of local dishes during our travel. The cooking of the Kenyan cuisine was well done. Explanations were straight forward and easy to understand. The pick-up was on time. We enjoyed the interesting conversation about Kenya and the local dishes. At the end we devoured a delicious local meal of ugali, mukimo and beef stew. The use of pumpkin leaves was a new experience.
A warm thank you to the instructors who made us feel welcome and appreciated.
