Traditional Foods

Ugali is one of the traditional foods in Uganda. This dish is rarely available in international restaurants, and so, while visiting Murchison falls, tourists enjoy this scrumptious, yet energizing meal. While few tourists may prefer having familiar foods, it is always a better idea to try the specialty of a place. This Ugali is served with dry fruits, nuts, and beans that are harvested locally with different sauces made out of chicken, beef or mutton. Certain Safari lodges in Uganda may also offer seafood such as tigerfish and mukini, seasoned with local spices. Because Uganda serves a diverse tourist base of millions, it offers different other food choices: continental, Italian and so on.
