Cooking Class

Aleck is fabulous at teaching novice cooks. His patience and thorough explanation makes replicating meals a breeze. His enthusiasm to bring traditional Zimbabwean meals, from his homeland as well as other African countries, alive is inspiring.

Cooking Class

Truly divine food that is full of flavour! Alick created a wide variety of yummy vegetarian dishes that my whole family enjoyed, would love to experience again. Every one of Alick’s dishes were authentic and delicious, and just as good as our experiences with food when travelling in Africa.
