Travel inland from the port in Cape Town and discover the culture through food, in this South African cooking class in a local home, in Grassy Park. We recommend all cruise travelers this Cape Town Shore Excursion, for a true authentic experience. Be welcomed into Lorette and Desmond’s beautiful home, built by Lorette's father 44 years ago. During your Cape Town cooking class learn to cook a traditional South African meal. Lorette is a keen gardener and loves using fresh herbs from her garden, so you might start the experience by collecting a few ingredients from the garden to cook with. The cooking class will last between 1-2 hours, during which you will learn to make 2-3 South African dishes. After cooking, sit down with Lorette and Desmond at their dining table to enjoy the delicious food you helped prepare. Your menu might include dishes such as mini roti's with chicken curry (the Cape Malay roti is a delicious unleavened flatbread served with chicken curry), bobotie (a South African dish of curried minced meat baked with a savory custard and served with aromatic rice and roasted vegetables) and malva pudding (a traditional South African dessert served with custard or cream).
