Among the many activities offered at the Festival Désenchaîné, traditional culinary workshops hold a special place. These interactive sessions provide participants with a unique opportunity to learn the techniques and secrets of African cuisine directly from experts and guardians of ancestral knowledge.

In a warm and educational atmosphere, people of all ages, both locals and visitors, gather around bowls and utensils to discover the preparation of iconic dishes. From selecting ingredients to mastering precise culinary techniques, each step is carefully explained, ensuring a vibrant transmission of gastronomic heritage.

Beyond the learning experience, these workshops are a true moment of cultural exchange. They encourage interactions between generations and cultures, strengthening the connection between past and present, memory and modernity. Through cuisine, an entire history is told, an identity is preserved, and a heritage continues to nourish both minds and palates.
