Experience Details: Join a local host to learn the art of Ghanaian “Soul Food.” This is a hands-on class where you’ll help prepare a 2-course meal from scratch. While the Jollof simmers, you’ll enjoy a tasting flight of local snacks and learn about the cultural identity of West African cuisine.

Embark on a delightful culinary journey with a private chauffeur who will pick you up from your accommodation, whisking you away to a charming local home nestled in one of Accra’s vibrant neighborhoods. Here, you’ll step away from the tourist hotspots and immerse yourself in the true “soul of the city.”

Upon your arrival, you’ll be warmly greeted with a refreshing local beverage, perhaps a chilled glass of Bissap, a fragrant hibiscus tea, or the invigorating taste of fresh coconut water. This warm reception is more than hospitality; it is your “Ghanaian initiation” into the heart of the home, where you are not merely a guest but an integral part of the kitchen experience.

As the hours unfold, your gracious host will expertly walk you through the intricate steps of preparing two iconic dishes. With each stir of the pot and sprinkle of seasonings, you will gain insights into Ghana’s rich cultural tapestry and the inspiring entrepreneurial spirit of the “Market Queens,” who diligently source the freshest ingredients from bustling local markets each day.

Once your meal is lovingly crafted, gather around the table for a traditional feast set in a relaxed, family-style atmosphere. Enjoy the fruits of your labor as you share stories and laughter, savoring Ghanaian cuisine in the company of newfound friends.
