When  you take a vacation to Africa, you may travel to Tanzania because you  want to sit on the Indian coast of Tanzania every day. The sunshine on  the coast is beautiful, and the people in every village are friendly.  You must plan your culinary tour of Tanzania with a bit of care because  there is so much food to enjoy. Consider each delicacy as part of your culinary tour, and remember that you can go anywhere you want to try out new food.

The Bantu People

In Tanzania, about 95% of the population is descended from the Bantu  people. They have their own cuisine and view of food. This means that  every local restaurant has roots in the ancient Bantu people and the way  they ate long ago. Plus, you will see quite a lot of Swahili cuisine  that focuses on fish. Coastal visitors can try seafood every day that is  made in the traditional style. As you move to the interior of the  country, you will see more meat dishes that are cooked in the  traditional Bantu style.

Street Carts

Keeping some cash on hand allows you to buy street food, visit carts  on every corner, and buy drinks from pop-up stands every night. These  carts and stands feature items like barracuda and lobster that were  pulled from the water that morning. Fresh seafood from a cart is  typically served on local bread, and the local sauces are made from  yogurts and ground spices. You can eat as the people of this country do  almost every day.

Fine Cuisine

Dar Es Salaam and Zanzibar are excellent places to find restaurants,  bars, and nightclubs. When you go into the cities, you will find bars  that serve traditional cocktails from around the world. Plus, these bars  and restaurants feature a few local liqueurs that you need to try.

Some wines are made in the deep valleys of the country, and liqueurs  are often made by each bar on the premises. This is a bit like trying  moonshine in America, but these local liqueurs are influenced by plants  and herbs that are grown in the area. Plus, every bar will recommend  which drink to try with certain items on the menu because they have  eaten that way for a long time.

On  this 10days culinary adventure in the beautiful coastal modern to  historical city of Dar es Salaam & Zanzibar, its culture &  cuisine. This journey is for Culinary & Culture Enthusiasts,  Adventurers, Global Trekkies, Foodies or Culinary Students, who seek to  explore Tanzania cuisine from locals, experts and fellow food lovers.
