Overview

This experience isn't just a cooking class; it's an immersive cultural experience where guests are taken to our local market to pick fresh produce and then to our traditional Ugandan home where we'll dance, laugh, cook, and most importantly, eat together.

Together, our food is carefully crafted with local, organic ingredients fresh from mama earth, and prepared traditionally over fire for incredibly smoky flavors. AND cooked with the most important ingredient: love!

Food around the world is unfortunately being westernized, but with Sylvia's upbringing in a rural village of western Uganda, she preserves traditional and authentic food preparation methods that are now being lost.

This experience is perfect for adventurous solo travelers, couples, families, etc; anyone who travels to experience the true culture and people of the places they visit.

What's included

  • When you arrive, we'll always greet you with traditional Ugandan spiced tea. Together, we'll cook about 3 recipes all of which can easily be made gluten free, vegetarian, dairy free etc upon request.
  • Coffee and/or Tea
  • English guide
  • Alcoholic Beverages

What to expect

Come have an unforgettable experience laughing, dancing, and cooking in the kitchen with a local Ugandan family! Sylvia is the warmest, most happy, endearing person quite possibly in the entire world. Her presence, light, and passion for human connection and bring people together through food brings everyone to life. Make life-long friends with Sylvia and her endearing family and share an unforgettable meal.
