It almost goes without saying that Anantara’s Bazaruto Island Resort in Mozambique makes an ideal beach holiday or romantic honeymoon. But thanks to its Culinary Journeys program, it’s a flavor destination, too.
Culinary Journeys takes guests on a delicious discovery of local cuisine and fresh Indian Ocean ingredients via special meals and cooking classes. Mozambican cuisine reflects the people and their culture. Like the country itself, traditional dishes are rich and spicy.
A Taste of Mozambique, one of the signature menus, features coconut prawns, stuffed crab, piri-piri chicken and sweet potato cake, while the Seafood Feast includes oysters, prawn gazpacho and grilled lobster.
For carnivores at heart, the Meat Lovers menu blends traditional and exotic fare: Springbok antelope served three ways plus quail and rack of lamb. At the other end of the eating spectrum, the Vegan Lifestyle meal includes vegetable gazpacho, stuffed tomato, pumpkin gnocchi and poached pear.
Guests can also choose an in-villa Barbecue Experience that features a variety of surf-and-turf bites, from grilled crayfish piri-piri and local line fish, to lamb chops, beef steak and Portuguese style chicken.
And Culinary Journeys ventures beyond lunch and dinner. There’s a sumptuous Champagne Breakfast and a Gin & Tonic Experience with a selection of curated gins and signature gin cocktails.
Meanwhile, guests can add new flavors to their culinary repertoire with a richly immersive,
step-by-step cooking class during which participants learn traditional Mozambique cooking techniques, craft authentic African recipes and enjoy their own creations during a chef-hosted meal.
