Experience an intimate and traditional cooking class with Hilena, a resident of Addis Ababa. This is an ideal occasion for those desiring to engage with the local culture through cuisine. Your culinary lesson will be held in a domestic kitchen setting, where Hilena will impart to you the preparation method of two classic Ethiopian meals using her ancestral recipes. Post-cooking, you’ll have the pleasure of dining on the meals you assisted in making.
Should you opt for the market trip, you’ll get to explore a local, community, roadside marketplace. Expect to encounter kiosks vending grains, vegetables, fruits, livestock, clothing and so forth. Wander the marketplace, familiarize yourself with the local produce and pick a few ingredients, before returning to Hilena’s home for your cooking and dining experience.
• A private tour of the market and cooking class in a resident’s home
• Led exploration of a local, community market
• Master the art of creating two dishes from Ethiopia
• Complimentary hotel pickup and drop-off service

- If any travelers in your party have any allergies, dietary restrictions or cooking preferences please advise at time of booking. Menu may vary depending on the season. Private, personalized experience. Vegetarian option is available, please advise at time of booking if required
- Hilena runs a guest house, so while there may be other travelers present, your Traveling Spoon cooking class will be private. Also, Hilena’s home is in the outskirts of Addis Ababa, in Sansusi, about 20 km from the airport.
- Please note that Hilena is not very fluent in English, so her brother will be present throughout the experience to help translate.
