Overview

    Marissa, her husband William and mother-in-law Shida host you in their simple, modest home. Join this warm and welcoming family in their mud house for an understanding of the local food and culture. Don't leave town without trying their meat stew!

    Start by helping Shida grate coconuts using a traditional tool called buzi. Then learn to make ugali, a traditional corn meal dish. Making Ugali is an art - simple but labor intensive, a real treat to learn! Enjoy your meal sitting on benches outdoors with the entire family. Ugali is eaten communal style, with each person picking cake with their hand, rolling it into a ball, and using it to scoop vegetables or stew. A few other dishes you may try are uji (a millet and peanut porridge), beef and green banana stew) and rice with spiced beans. Dishes are cooked in coconut milk and simmered over a wood fire, giving it a distinct and delicious flavor! End your experience by sharing peanut brittle and Shida’s local brew with friends and family.
