A fantastic class

I had a fantastic time at the cooking class. Gertrude was a brillaint host. Her family were so welcoming and friendly. I learnt so much about the process of cooking Ugandan food from start to finish. Also Gertrude taught me a lot about general Ugandan culture. Would 100% recommend and very incredibly safe and comfortable as a young female solo traveller. Was quite far from central Kampala so recommend booking pre organised transport rather than using bolt/safe car.

Dinner with Family :)

I had the most amazing time. Gertrude is an absolute pleasure. I was greeted with a friendly welcome and I learned a lot about the local tribe and food that they were known for. The food was also delicious!

Lots of work, well worth it!

It was a very enjoyable morning into early afternoon. Gertrude proved to be a pleasant instructor as well as host just as the reviews spoke of her. It was plenty of work in order to learn the names of the foods and how to cook them traditionally. It will be a memorable Uganda experience.

We had an amazing time at...

We had an amazing time at the cooking class with Gertrude in Kampala! She was such a friendly and welcoming host, making the whole experience feel personal and fun. We explored some really interesting local ingredients I had never used before, which made it even more special. The highlight for me was the mega tasty peanut sauce—absolutely delicious and something I’ll definitely try to recreate at home. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an authentic and flavorful Ugandan food experience!

Very enjoyable experience!

Gertrude was a wonderful and sweet host! We got to know the native plants that are used in everyday life and how to peel, process and consume them in a very traditional way! (banana leaves!!) We enjoyed spending this time with Gertrude and her adorable little son in their home; chatting, dancing and sharing stories as well as cooking skills! Thank you for this delightful experience!
