What you can expect

Experience the exotic flavours and aromas of Salvador (São Salvador da Bahia), and learn about the African, Portuguese and indigenous legacies of its cuisine. Meet a family from the community and learn how to prepare and cook some Afro-Brazilian food.

Follow an itinerary carefully crafted to provide the best flavours for your palate at a cooking class run in accordance with traditions and religious customs. Chat with the family as you prepare your own lunch!

Start with a visit to a seafood market, and learn about the best fish to use for different types of recipe. Prepare to cook a fish stew known as “moqueca” (a typical Afro-Brazilian local dish). Pick up some vegetables at another food market, along with some tropical fruit that you will use to make a caipirinha (Brazil's national cocktail).

Next, prepare the delicacies in a popular area, guided by your host family. Discover how to prepare the dishes according to Afro-Brazilian traditions, and savour the flavours of the African Diaspora. As their ancestors would say: “ajeum” (“eating is sacred”).
