    A lot of fun

    Timothy_R, Oct 2026
    This was probably the most entertaining thing I did during my week in Rwanda. As someone who doesn't cook much, I booked this as just something different to try. It was a blast. James is not only a very good and knowledgeable cook, he's an absolute riot to hang out and exchange stories with. Despite this being a 1-2 hour experience I ended up staying at the restaurant for something lile 7 hours meeting some of his friends rienss and enjoying some food, it was a great way to spend an evening where I had no plans and hadn't really met anyone in the country yet. Absolutely 10/10 if you are looking for something fun to do in Kigali, lile spice, and have a good sense of humor.

    Thank you James!

    I had an amazing time making hot sauce from scratch with James. He is not only a fantastic chef but also incredibly personable and down to earth. A true man of the people. The class was fun, hands-on, and packed with useful tips. I felt completely comfortable, even without much kitchen experience, and the hot sauce I made was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend for anyone who loves flavor, fun, and a bit of heat.

    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.
