I love good food and I love trying out new flavours and experimenting in the kitchen with different recipes.I'm a foodie and as such I enjoy making my own food and devouring it later when its finally done.I also do orders especially of cakes and some desserts too.

Fresh fish swirlling in a sea of coconut curry. True authentic Swahili dish I must say.I learnt this special dish from my mother the traditional way. A hot charcoal burner, that stone made pestle and mortar, the coconut grater you sit on.....they conjure memories of a lifetime. Delight your senses to the wonders of East African cooking which has origins of Arab, Indian and African elements combined. The fresh herbs and spices tingle and tantalise your taste buds into a frenzy.

Paired with coconut rice & crepe like pancakes. Substitute chicken with chickpeas for a vegetarian option, use less coconut and more water for a healthier option.

Winter is coming, and it’s time to eat all the decor pumpkins! 🎃This dish is very rich and smooth with the coconut milk and pumpkin. It’s not spicy, even slightly sweet from the pumpkin. Absolutely recommend for a family dinner!

I had a craving for creamy chicken curry.I didn't make this spicy so that my child could eat it too. If you want to spice it up, you can add some red pepper or substitute the turmeric for curry powder. If you don't have chutney, you can use honey or sugar. Recipe by Nico
