Exploring local cuisine is a highlight of any trip, and Tanzania and Zanzibar offer a culinary adventure like no other. Kei Tours and Safaris Ltd. will guide you through the best dishes, from hearty Tanzanian meals like ugali and nyama choma to the unique flavors of Zanzibari street food such as Zanzibar pizza.
Tanzanian Delicacies
Ugali: A staple in Tanzanian meals, ugali is a dense maize flour porridge often served with vegetables, meat, or fish. It’s a must-try for anyone wanting an authentic taste of local cuisine during their Tanzania Safaris.
Nyama Choma: Translating to “grilled meat,” nyama choma is a favorite among locals and tourists alike. Usually made with beef or goat, this dish is best enjoyed with friends and a side of kachumbari (tomato and onion salad).
Zanzibari Flavors
Zanzibar Pizza: Unlike any pizza you’ve tasted before, Zanzibar pizza is a fried concoction filled with meat, vegetables, cheese, and eggs. It’s a street food staple that should not be missed during your Zanzibar beach holiday packages.
Seafood Dishes: The island’s proximity to the ocean ensures a fresh and diverse seafood menu. Dishes like octopus curry and grilled prawns highlight the best of Zanzibari cuisine.
Spice Tours and Flavors
Zanzibar, known as the “Spice Island,” offers unique tours where you can see, smell, and taste fresh spices like cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. These tours often culminate in a meal prepared with the spices you’ve just learned about, providing a full sensory experience.
