Perched on the slopes of Signal Hill, overlooking Table Bay and Mountain, lies the colourful Bo-Kaap, (Cape Malay quarter), with its cobblestone streets, legends and secrets. Your walk through Cape Town’s historical quarter focuses on the extraordinary cuisine of the Cape Malay community. While shopping for ingredients to make a typical Cape Malay dish you discover links between history, food and religion in the Bo Kaap.

It’s all-hands-on during the informal cooking workshop, which follows in a Bo-Kaap family home. You’ll learn how to mix Masala, fold Samoosas and how to balance the flavours of a Cape Malay curry, catering for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.

Sharing the table with your hostess and cooking instructor offers the opportunity for interesting talk and interaction. Highly recommended!
