Highlights
  • BORISKA RESTO - As you arrive, you’ll be greeted with a refreshing water bottle to keep you hydrated throughout the experience. Then, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get hands-on with the main event. Under the expert guidance of our chefs, you’ll learn the art of chili sauce crafting from scratch. First, you’ll select your preferred chili peppers from our diverse selection, including the likes of Jalapeños, Habaneros, and the beloved Pili Pili. Armed with a knife, you’ll carefully cut and prepare the peppers, experiencing their unique aromas and flavors firsthand. Next comes the blending stage, where you’ll mix and match ingredients to create your own custom chili sauce. With the chef’s guidance, you’ll adjust the flavors to suit your taste preferences, adding extra spices and ingredients for that perfect balance of heat and flavor. But the adventure doesn’t end there. You’ll also learn about the fascinating process of fermentation, a key step in chili sauce making that adds depth and complexity to the final product. Under the watchful eye of our chefs, you’ll begin the fermentation process, setting the stage for your sauce to develop its signature flavor profile over time.

A trip highlight - A very informative experience! Our guide was a highly experienced and fun chef who taughts the ins and outs of sauce making and also told other interesting stories. After getting into sauce making, we taste tested different sauces and got to take home a big bottle of our favoirte one. I highly recommend this tour.

Great hosts, fantastic hot sauce! - The cooking was informal, yet informative. I was able to taste different sauces and was able to take my own bottle of sauce away with me. The host was also keen to share stories about the area and offered tips for travelling to other parts of Rwanda. I had trouble getting a ride over, so they came to pick me up! They also sent me pictures of the visit later in the day. A super way to spend some time in Kigali.

Hot Sauce Making - We had a wonderful time learning how to make hot sauce...the best part other than learning a new skill, is taking your sauce home with you. Definitely recommend this.

Great experience - It was a great experience. Shark recommended this activity and it was very cool. Everything was ready for us, we got special clothing and gloves to protect us from the spiciness. We got a good instructions before it started and then we got into it. We chopped some paprikas while we were being explained the whole process. We got a bottle of our own chili each to bring home. We also had a tasting of the chili we made at the place. The whole activity didn't take so long (around one hour) which was also very convenient.

Chilly-Making - As an Indian, i never imagined i would be a part of chilli sauce experience. It was an hour and half event with loads of information on chilly and how chilly sauces are made. Also got my own bottle to take back and enjoy :) was really fun.
