Food as a connection to place, history, and each other.

From Antananarivo’s busy markets to the farms around Andasibe, this journey explores the ingredients, people, and traditions that shape Malagasy cuisine.

Cook alongside Malagasy chefs, learn directly from farmers, and explore connections with African American foodways. Shared meals and conversation bring the experience together, with time to rest and explore along the way.

What to expect

Markets and local tables

Visit Analakely Market, discover heirloom rice, greens, dried fish, and spices, and taste mofo gasy and masikita. Meals at Sakamanga and La Varangue offer another perspective on Malagasy cooking.

From the farm to the fire

Travel east to Andasibe to learn about vanilla, cinnamon, and wild pepper from smallholder farmers. Gather ingredients and cook over open fires.

A shared culinary exchange
