Yassa, Domoda or Benachin. You've heard about these dishes, and now you can learn how to cook them. And of course eat what you've cooked :)

You'll get the best cooking lesson of some of our local Gambian dishes. The menu various from chicken, meat, fish, dishes like yassa (fish or chicken yassa), Domoda (peanut butter soup), vegetable Yassa, Benachin (fried rice) and Findi (fonio) with peanut butter soup. Just choose what you prefer.

We also make local juices like baobab or wonjo juice, which is dark cranberry coloured juice made from a dark red flower from a surreal plant.

We will take you to local market (dress in a traditional Gambian if requested), help you to shop food items and bring home.
