The best

Phaedra_E, Apr 2022

This experience is probably one of my favorites out of all my travels anywhere in the world. Grace was super welcoming. The food we cooked was so tasty. Im still not convinced she didn’t season our veggies with just salt and onions because I’ve never had spinach and kale taste so good with so little added. We made ugali and she explained the significance of that for Kenyans. Her baby was there and she’s super sweet and intelligent. I thoroughly enjoyed my time at her place and highly recommend!!

Cooking with Grace

nekiaspann, Feb 2020

Cooking with Grace was one of the best experiences I had in Nairobi. She is such an amazing personable host, she allowed us to get hands on and explained and answered every question we had about the food we were cooking. The food we made was very tasty, I am definitely going to try making the meal at home. If you are ever in Nairobi and are looking for a very authentic experience, definitely check Grace out. She is so welcoming and I felt right at home in here place.
