A postcard from our chefs...
JamboAnd welcome to our kitchen at Chem Chem - the heart of any home and the life force of a safari. Time on a journey is a series of moments, connected by food. And so our approach to meal time is to create unexpectedly intricate, mouthwatering dishes.
Our team of chefs, many of us local to Tanzania, creates recipes using produce grown in our gardens. We draw inspiration from the owners' European heritage, as well as the bush around us. In turn, our menus reflect the story of Chem Chem - Fabia and Nicolas with their European roots, as well as our collective passion for Tanzania.
Each meal is a perfect blend of taste, beauty and connection to the land. This truly is amongst the finest food found in Tanzania, download a sample menu for yourself.
All meals, snacks and house beverages are included and with three courses at lunch and dinner (and there are two options per course, so you will be spoilt for choice!).
We hope to cook for you soon.
Bon appetit!
